jump command :h3
[Syntax:]
jump file label :pre
file = filename of new input script to switch to
label = optional label within file to jump to :ul
[Examples:]
jump newfile
jump in.run2 runloop
jump SELF runloop :pre
[Description:]
This command closes the current input script file, opens the file with
the specified name, and begins reading LAMMPS commands from that file.
Unlike the "include"_include.html command, the original file is not
returned to, although by using multiple jump commands it is possible
to chain from file to file or back to the original file.
If the word "SELF" is used for the filename, then the current input
script is re-opened and read again.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The SELF option is not guaranteed to work when the
current input script is being read through stdin (standard input),
e.g.
lmp_g++ < in.script :pre
since the SELF option invokes the C-library rewind() call, which may
not be supported for stdin on some systems. This can be worked around
by using the "-in command-line argument"_Section_start.html#2_6 or the
"-var command-line argument"_Section_start.html#2_6 to pass the script
name as a variable to the input script In the latter case, the "fname"
"variable"_variable.html could be used in place of SELF. E.g.
lmp_g++ -in in.script :pre
lmp_g++ -var fname n.script < in.script :pre
The 2nd argument to the jump command is optional. If specified, it is
treated as a label and the new file is scanned (without executing
commands) until the label is found, and commands are executed from
that point forward. This can be used to loop over a portion of the
input script, as in this example. These commands perform 10 runs,
each of 10000 steps, and create 10 dump files named file.1, file.2,
etc. The "next"_next.html command is used to exit the loop after 10
iterations. When the "a" variable has been incremented for the tenth
time, it will cause the next jump command to be skipped.
variable a loop 10
label loop
dump 1 all atom 100 file.$a
run 10000
undump 1
next a
jump in.lj loop :pre
If the jump {file} argument is a variable, the jump command can be
used to cause different processor partitions to run different input
scripts. In this example, LAMMPS is run on 40 processors, with 4
partitions of 10 procs each. An in.file containing the example
variable and jump command will cause each partition to run a different
simulation.
mpirun -np 40 lmp_ibm -partition 4x10 -in in.file :pre
variable f world script.1 script.2 script.3 script.4
jump $f :pre
Here is an example of a double loop which uses the "if"_if.html and
jump commands to break out of the inner loop when a condition is met,
then continues iterating thru the outer loop.
label loopa
variable a loop 5
label loopb
variable b loop 5
print "A,B = $a,$b"
run 10000
if $b > 2 then "jump in.script break"
next b
jump in.script loopb
label break
variable b delete :pre
next a
jump in.script loopa :pre
[Restrictions:]
If you jump to a file and it does not contain the specified label,
LAMMPS will come to the end of the file and exit.

"variable"_variable.html, "include"_include.html, "label"_label.html,
"next"_next.html
[Default:] none
