Reclass Field Calculator problem

MartaPo — Thu, 10 Aug 2017 09:49:03 GMT

Hi,

I am having a massive problem with running this script in ArcGIS 10.3 Field Calculator Python

def Reclass(CLASS):
if CLASS=="2":
return "2a"
elif CLASS=="3"
return "3a"
else:
return (CLASS)

Any help much appreciated.

Thank you,

Marta

Try this:

def Reclass(CLASS):
  if CLASS=="2":
    return "2a"
  elif CLASS=="3":
    return "3a"
  else:
    return CLASS‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

If Xander's suggestion doesn't work, it would be helpful if you explain what exactly isn't working, including posting the error message(s).

Hi Xander,

It is working now. I have not realised that the spacing is so important. Thank you
