Hi Python users,
I ran into a problem with python coding in ARCGIS. Does anybody have the
experience in dealing with this?
I need to calculate NEWFIELD based on OLDFIELD under condition: if OLDFIELD ==
0 then return string "B" otherwise return "".
codeblock = "def codefun(code): if code == 0: return \"B\" else: return \"\" "
gp.CalculateField_management("INFILE", "OLDFIELD", "codefun(!NEWFIELD!",
"PYTHON", codeblock)
I got error:
RuntimeError:
exceptions.SyntaxError: invalid syntax (line 1)
Failed to execute (CalculateField).
Thanks for any kind of help!
