Subracting a varaible from an other varaible

[david92ng]

Hey,

lets say we have a code like this:

code:

var money : real var bet :real

so..... I declared it but I don't know how to subtract the bet from the ammout of money.
If you havnt figured it out yet, im makeing a card game.

Im looking for a code something like this:

code:

money := money - bet

but everyone here knows this wont work... LOL but you get my idea rite?

Any suggestions? or is there a better way of doing this?
Thanks, asap is good

Ummm, no. I don't get what you mean, you will have to be more specific...

[rdrake]

code:

money -= bet

...?

That code will work. But money and bet need to be assigned a value first.

well ur code will work but there is a better way to do it and rdrake has got it

the money-=bet will act as tho u said money:=money - bet also there is += which is money:=money + bet and also ~= which is not = of money:= money not= bet (usually used for boolean varibles

but what u are looking for is the -= (and possibly += if they win the hand) this is how it will look

Turing:

var money:real var bet:real %assign bet and money to a value money:=1000 put "How much will you bet?" get bet money-=bet %some code here if win then    money+=bet end if
