Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

passing a variable to a proc
Something like this.
global proc testPrint()
{
string $sendA = "Success";
string $sendB = "Failure";
printMe($sendA,$sendB);
}
global proc printMe(string $A, string $B)
{
print $A
print $B
}

proc alanTest(string $a, string $b)
{
print ("a: "+$a+"\n");
print("b: "+$b+"\n");
}
alanTest("alan", "woods");
You have to make sure that you pass a string and that when you print it that you concatenate it properly so that it is evaluated and not printed as a literal.

Thanks for all the help. I'm not actually trying to print something, I was jus using that as an example. What I'm trying to do is not pass a string from opne proc to another, but pass a viriable. I'm not sure why I can't do it, as my test looks just like your to my eyes. What's the diff?

proc intTest(int $a, int $b)
{
int $c = $a + $b;
print ("value of c is: " + $c + "\n");
}
intTest(4,5);
That should work.

proc intTest(int $a, int $b)
{
int $c = $a + $b;
print ("value of c is: " + $c + "\n");
}
int $c = 4;
int $d = 5;
intTest($c,$d);
That should work as well, but it doesn't. I get the message varible $a is not defined.
