I need some help with a project.

-----------------------------------

Well, I'm just wondering if its possible to add a OR statement into a if statement

Here's an example.

if GAMES = "Points" or "points" then

Please Help me =D

Re: I need some help with a project.

-----------------------------------

Your statements must be written like this:
What that means is you must do something like the following:
However, it looks like what you want to do is check for capitalization. This can be accomplished much better through the use of Str.Upper() or Str.Lower().

var input : string
get input
if Str.Lower(input) = "hello world" then
    %code
end if

RE:I need some help with a project.

-----------------------------------

Ok, So i fixed that issue. Now I have a new issue.

My Elsif statements don't go past the second one


if BLA = "grrr" then
%CODE
elsif BLA = "Grrr2" then
%CODE2
elsif BLA = "Grrr3" then
%CODE THAT DOESNT WORK
elsif BLA = "Grrr4" then
%CODE THAT DOESNT WORK
end if


Things in bold are what needs fixing

RE:I need some help with a project.

-----------------------------------

what is the value of variable BLA when the bolded code doesn't work?

RE:I need some help with a project.

-----------------------------------

This is my code.



if Str.Lower (VOID) = "items" then
    put "Please enter the item you wish to have."
    put "Void Armour, Dragon weapon set, BGS or Ice arrows."

    get VOID1

    if Str.Lower (VOID1) = "void armour" then
        AMP := 150 - POINTS
        A := 150
        AMOUNT := POINTS / 150
        GAMES := AMP / 2
    elsif
            Str.Lower (VOID1) = "bgs" then
        AMP := 100 - POINTS
        A := 100
        AMOUNT := POINTS / 100
        GAMES := AMP / 2
    elsif
            Str.Lower (VOID1) = "ice arrows" or Str.Lower (VOID1) = "ice arrow" then
        AMP := 1 - POINTS
        A := 1
        AMOUNT := POINTS*15
        GAMES := 0
    end if
end if

It says all the variables don't have a value when i make VOID1 ice arrow or ice arrows.

Re: I need some help with a project.

-----------------------------------

if you want your strings to have a space in them (like in ice arrows) you must either surround them in quotes when inputting them, or use

[code]
get VOID1 :*
[/code]

by default, Turing stops reading input after a space. adding :* will stop this from happening.

Re: I need some help with a project.

-----------------------------------

The bad object header error means that you are using the version of Turing in which compiling is broken. Downloading a slightly older version (I think the one linked to at the top of the compsci.ca page works) and recompiling should fix this problem.
