help clean up some code

[longpole001]

i always knew the if , then way produces less words but with 30 "and" compares per test , if then way look really bad and hard to follow, there seems to be no really short way to do large compares for arrays

Hi,
I haven't looked into it in detail but perhaps you could use ARRAYREAD with the WAIT or WAITSTR modifer to do what you want?

Value VAR BYTE[6]   ' Array of 6 bytes for the "new values"
DummyVAR   'Needed for ArrayWrite to do what we want - possibly

ARRAYREAD Value, 6, NoMatch, [WAIT("123456"), DummyVAR]    ' Search the Value-array for 123456, jump to NoMatch if not found.
' Continue here if match is found
' ....
' ....

NoMatch:
' Continue here if no match was found

The above tries to match the array to a static string of 123456, if what you want to match is changing then use a second array for the "match condition" and use WAITSTR instead of WAIT. At least that's how I THINK it should work, I haven't actually tried it though.....
