To finish off my script tool i want the script to give me an add message (sum) that calculates total hectares for only 2 certain attributes (soil classes 1 and 2) in my Hectares field. I have a hectares field and a field that give soil classes 1 to 5. in the python language how would i write the expression?
The shapefile i want to perform this on is called: [clip_output]
The field thats lists soil type is called: [CLASS]
The hectares field that I want the script to give me the sum from is called [Hectares]
This is what I have so far but it is not working (not sure if i need to list variables):
with arcpy.da.SearchCursor(clip_output, ['Hectares'], 'CLASS in (1, 2)') as cur:
sum = 0
for row in cur:
sum += row[0]
arcpy.AddMessage(sum)
error im getting is:
line 106, in <module> for row in cur: RuntimeError: An invalid SQL statement was used
