10

Hugged rows per hug= (minimum is 2)

54

Named variables. Note that each inc= statement also counts as a named variable. (This limit can be increased.)

867

 

 

Axes in a run. When calculating the number of axes in a run, Quantum counts each grid axis as two axes. (This limit can be increased.)

500

Characters per axis. (This limit can be increased.)

20000

Characters in total for the unique IDs in an axis (text specified with uniqid=).

400

Fields per fld statement

20

Columns per field on fld and bit statements.

This is the limit that is built into Quantum. In practice, however, the limitations of the available resources on many systems impose a lower limit.

9

Logical items per fld statement.

A logical item is a variable name, an open or closed parenthesis, an integer, real or string constant, a logical operator, or a comma.

150

Bit arguments per fld statement.

A single number, such as "Ten" or "Ten=10", requires 1 bit argument; a range of numbers on its own, such as "Five or Six=5‑6", requires 3 bit arguments; in a list of values, each value in the list requires 1 bit argument, and 2 bit arguments are required to identify the list itself; if a list includes a range of numbers, the range is expanded so each number in the range requires 1 bit argument, so "Any Washo brand=1,3,7,10‑12,14" requires 9 bit arguments.
