loop question

[endusto]

i've checked the manual and stuff but im still not sure how to do this, i know a few other languages, like C++, java ect, and they all have "while loops" so it loops until something equals something else, how do you do that in turing? and, how do you make it so a new variable is created every time? like i have to make something that asks how many courses you have this semester, then it will ask you what you got in each one and find the average, but i dont know how to make a new variable for each mark, if you are asked how many courses you have

Eh? I think you want to use a for..end for, and an array.

code:

var courses:int get courses var grade:array of int 1..courses for i:1..courses get grade(i) end for

Is that what you wanted? (note: I haven't used turing in a while, my code code be off by a bit)

Do you want

code:

exit when

code:

var ha :int loop get ha exit when ha = 5 end loop

8) 8)

[endusto]

well i want that, but i want it so like, ha1 will be your first mark, ha2 will be your second... ect.

then u have to create an array

code:

var times:int put "how many marks to enter?" get times var lala : array 1..times of int % this part is just in case the user skips a turn for ii:1..times lala(ii) := 0 end for for i:1..times put "Enter the number ", i ," mark." get lala (i) end for for b:1..times put "The number ",b, " mark is ",lala (b) end for

Turing has while loops o.o; *I think* been a while since I turcoded but I am uite sure it does o.o;

[cycro1234]

Turing does not have while loops

[ssr]

I'm just wondering, is there anyway to create arrays or chnage it
like depends on how many numbers the user entered, teh number of arrays are created.
using loops
and blah blah

sure it does

Turing:

loop ... exit when not(condition) end loop

something about arrays

yes - Flexible Arrays

WOWOWOWOW
thanx Tony,so thats what its for
I was just wondering what a flexible array is.

Not to be rude but if you already know some java and C++ why are you leanring turing

Turing is only good if you don't know any other language at teh time

If it is a school course talk to your teacher about advancing your skills not back tracking 8)

I only know a little java and still learning, and I dont know any C++?
ummm

anyway I like Turing..

Turing is great if u've never done ne programming in the past, like me
