Parameter and scope information
The parameter object represents a parameter,
which is a quantity that can change or can be constant. SimBiology® parameters
are generally used to define rate constants. You can add parameter
objects to a model object or a kinetic law object. The scope of a
parameter depends on where you add the parameter object: If you add
the parameter object to a model object, the parameter is available
to all reactions in the model and the Parent
property
of the parameter object is SimBiology.Model
. If
you add the parameter object to a kinetic law object, the parameter
is available only to the reaction for which you are using the kinetic
law object and the Parent
property of the parameter
object is SimBiology.KineticLaw
.
See Property Summary for links to parameter object property reference pages.
Properties define the characteristics of an object. Use the
and get
commands to list object
properties and change their values at the command line. You can graphically
change object properties in the graphical user interface. set
