Have an option on each submenu for going back to the main menu. If the user chooses that option, make the code go back to the top of the loop where the main menu is. ----------------------------------- DanielG Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:18 pm RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- easiest way is to use procedures, make each menu a procedure and when you choose something in a menu, it can just call any of the other menus (or if going back to a previous one, just use return) ----------------------------------- Insectoid Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:58 pm RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- you made 3 posts in the same thread in under 4 minutes. 'bumping' is not allowed on compsci, especially 1 minute from the original post. ----------------------------------- MikeAlexnder Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:05 pm RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- Can you shoew me how? ----------------------------------- syntax_error Tue Dec 23, 2008 10:21 pm Re: Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- proc foo /* magic code here */ end foo proc bar /* magical-er code here */ end bar proc blag /* magical-er-er code here */ end blag loop put "foo" put "bar" put "blag" get choice if choice ==1 cls loop bar exitcommand == true then exit end loop else if choice == 2 cls loop blag exitcommand == true then exit end loop else if choice == 3 cls loop foo exitcommand == true then exit end loop end if end loop end loop Just a outline. Note: not to scale. ----------------------------------- Insectoid Wed Dec 24, 2008 10:55 am RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- Okay, so the main menu is in a loop. When you click a button, it goes to that menu's procedure, which contains a loop. When you click 'back', it exits that loop, which will then return to the main menu. syntax_error, in Turing comparisons are done with a single = rather than ==. Just pointing it out :P. proc menu1 loop %mouse stuff exit when exitButton clicked end loop end menu1 proc menu2 %same as menu1, but with different options end menu2 %main menu loop if menu1 button clicked then menu1 elsif menu2 button clicked then menu2 end if end loop ----------------------------------- MikeAlexnder Wed Dec 24, 2008 1:02 pm RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- Can you help me edit my program so it will be in this form? If anyone can than I will send you my program or post it. My program is done and fuctional I just need to put in in the form above. I tried but I failed :cry: ----------------------------------- Insectoid Wed Dec 24, 2008 1:05 pm RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- Nope. That's called 'thinking'. It's a huge part of programming. ----------------------------------- MikeAlexnder Wed Dec 24, 2008 1:06 pm RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- PLEASE!!!I BEG YOU!!!! ----------------------------------- S_Grimm Wed Dec 24, 2008 1:18 pm RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- 1) Caps Lock should be off when typing 2) We don't do work for you. We will point you in the right direction and give you samples, but never will we write the code for you. EVER. 3) The Code is in this thread. Just take a look. Think about how to do it, then implement it. Don't worry if it doesn't work at first, just trouble shoot it untill you get it to work. 4) If / Else constructs ----------------------------------- MikeAlexnder Wed Dec 24, 2008 8:07 pm RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- It doesn't work!!!! ----------------------------------- Insectoid Wed Dec 24, 2008 8:35 pm Re: RE:Turing Help (urgent) ----------------------------------- The Code is in this thread.

There have been multiple ideas posted that will work in this situation. if you just use their suggestions you should be able to figure this out. Personally, I would go with the procedures. proc menu1() %contents loop exit when whatever end loop end menu1 proc menu2() %more contents! loop exit when whatever end loop end menu2 proc menu3() %EVEN MORE CONTENTS! loop exit when whatever end loop end menu3 proc mainMenu() put "option1" put "option2" put "option3 get choice if choice was 1 menu1 elsif choice was 2 menu2 elsif choice was 3 menu3 end if end mainMenu loop mainMenu end loop This is essentially a working solution! you just need to put it into Turing and put in menu contents! not only is this a working solution, but TWO other people have already posted almost the exact same thing. when you ask for help, actually read the advice people give you! then you can solve the problem on your own!
