the index

[masterfenix]

Hi,
I am testing a user inputs.

say if they want to quit the current proc, they ahve to type in 'quit'

in my proc I have,

code:

var userinput : string get userinput if index("quitQUIT", userinput) > 0 then       return end if

but now, if the user types in 'qu' or 'q' it automattcally quits.
but if i just test again userinput = 'quit' , and they type in say QuIt then its not gonna work.

I was thinking of making a small function that makes that string into a small case string. that could solve things, but if theres a way to do it with index, please tell me.

code:

var userinput : string get userinput if Str.Lower(userinput) = "quit" then       return end if

hope that helps

May I add that works for Turing 4.05 only

And if you don't have it, then you can create your own version, or add this to your program:

Turing:

function Lower (s : string) : string     var res : string := ""     for i : 1 .. length (s)         if "A" <= s (i) and s (i) <= "Z" then             res += chr (ord (s (i)) + 32)         else             res += s (i)         end if     end for     result res end Lower

cool. where can i get 4.05, In my turing editor i check for latest updates and 4.04c is the latest one.

should i ask my teacher?


and gandalf, whats your user name on enemony territory. I just downlloaded that game so im 'alright' but im 'masfenix;

The Turing site doesn't host the Turing 4.0.5 download anymore (4.0.5 is aka 4.0.4d), but you might be able to get it from your teacher/school.

As for Enemy Territory, I go by a few names and I've been playing from basically the start. It's a great game. But that's for either Off Topic or Private Messages...
