If endif loop with 'OR'

[Art]

There’s nothing wrong with what you’re doing with the IF/THEN statements
so long as you follow it, the compiled code is similar, and possiblly even worse.

if (battery=charged) && (lightbulb != blown) then ‘ AND
bulb will light
endif

if (battery = flat) || (lightbulb = blown) then ‘ OR
bulb will not light
endif

Hi Art,

As I've been monolingual with basic since the early 80s, your reply is another puzzle, but thanks. I'll stick to IF/THEN.

Ah, what I posted should compile in C or PBP, and in both languages inner brackets should evaluate first, and in order toward outer brackets.

PBP

if (battery=charged) && (lightbulb != blown) then ‘ AND
bulb will light
endif

C

if (battery=charged) && (lightbulb != blown) { ‘ AND
bulb will light
}

not really in C (battery=charged) is not a comparison it's an assignment ,while the statement will compile in C the results will be incorrect

(battery==charged) is a comparison statement in C

Whoops .
