Logging the Comp() function

Hello,

I am using the comp function in the backtester. For example rankPerf=comp(perf(close,10),'rank');
Is there a way to debug - log or visualize - the results of the comp function? I need to 'see' what are the results, bar by bar.
As far as I know I cannot use it on a chart as an indicator.

Thank you.

It is very easy.

Use Screener, choose markets, choose date and then put this code:
var1 = comp(perf(close,10),'rank');
AddColumn("Rank",var1);

But option to log various values bar by bar to txt files will be great.

Great. Thank you Clonex! Backtester output would be great but this does help make sure my formula is coded correctly.
Appreciate it.
