----------------------------------- HaVoC Wed Nov 12, 2003 4:08 pm If statement, needs a boolean type ----------------------------------- I'm trying to make a simple calculator. Just with 2 numbers and 4 operations. +,-,*,/ My if statement is this if op:= + ans:= num1+num2 end if Except it says my if statement needs type boolean? What do I do? ----------------------------------- Mazer Wed Nov 12, 2003 5:18 pm ----------------------------------- Except it says my if statement needs type boolean? What do I do? it says it needs type boolean because if statements use boolean (true or false) comparisons and execute a specified section of code if it is true and another section of code (if specified) if it's false. := is for assigning values to variables = is for comparing variables thus, your if statement should read: if op = "+" then ans := num1+num2 end if thats assuming your code has a string variable called op that you use to get input from the user ("+", "-", "*", "/") ----------------------------------- Chimaera Wed Nov 12, 2003 7:37 pm ----------------------------------- thus, your if statement should read: Code: if op = "+" ans := num1+num2 end if You mean If op = "+" then ans:=num1+num2 end if :wink: ----------------------------------- Mazer Wed Nov 12, 2003 8:13 pm ----------------------------------- lol, what are you talking about, chimaera? you shouldn't go around quoting people and then changing the text in the quote. :wink: ----------------------------------- Chimaera Wed Nov 12, 2003 8:17 pm ----------------------------------- What?!

My tech teacher helped me out. Anyways, thanks, it helped in the long run. Though I had to set the ans variable to 'real' before I could do division. Can anyone tell me how to go about making an interface? ----------------------------------- Chimaera Thu Nov 13, 2003 9:06 pm ----------------------------------- what sort of interface are you looking for? GUI? Text? Or do you want there to be boxes that you click on and text boxes for you to type in? ----------------------------------- HaVoC Thu Nov 13, 2003 9:38 pm ----------------------------------- Well, a GUI would be nice, but before I do that, what is the code to implement a BMP? Do you know a place, with a list of ALL commands, and their descriptions? ----------------------------------- AsianSensation Thu Nov 13, 2003 9:46 pm ----------------------------------- it's called the turing help files, lol :lol: F10 button ----------------------------------- Tony Thu Nov 13, 2003 9:47 pm ----------------------------------- there's a tutorial on importing pictures into turing in TUTORIALS section. As for all commands... help file (F10 in turing) is helpful at times. ----------------------------------- HaVoC Fri Nov 14, 2003 9:32 pm ----------------------------------- All that did was enable tracing ----------------------------------- Dan Mon Nov 17, 2003 4:42 pm ----------------------------------- All that did was enable tracing I dont what verson of turing you have but in all the ones i have used have F10 bring up the help file if they have it and the F9 birngs up the help file for the slected worad. if you have one of the erail versons of turing 4.x you may have to get the upgrade from the holth group web site to get the help files ----------------------------------- HaVoC Tue Nov 18, 2003 8:46 pm ----------------------------------- What's the Holth Group URL? ----------------------------------- Thuged_Out_G Tue Nov 18, 2003 8:56 pm ----------------------------------- www.holtsoft.com i think thats it
