Fangyi,

In the current standard it need to be (param_name  "param_value").

I have proposed that if does not contain <space>, <cr> or <lf> that  the "
are optional - at least in the .ami file. This is what Excel does in csv
file when cells contain a comma or space.. But this did not seam to get any
traction in the group.

Subject: [ibis-macro] question about string parameter in AMI

Hi, Experts;

Shall the double quote of the value of a string parameter be included in the
input parameter string of the Init call? For example, if an AMI model has a
string parameter with name "param_name" and value "param_value", should the
input parameter string be

(param_name  "param_value")

or

(param_name  param_value)

Thanks in advance,

Fangyi
