Can't understand why

[k1die]

Ok i have a little problem, i made this:

$vot = 0 
$x = inputbox("aaa" , "bbb")
$y = InputBox("aaa" , "bbb")
$z = abs($x - $y)
Select
Case($x < $y)
        $vot = $x
Case Else   
    $vot = $y
EndSelect
msgbox(0,"aaa","x=" & $x & "y=" & $y & "z=" & $z & "vot=" & $vot).

I need the lower value between xy, and the difference between them. The script works with some numbers but with other numbers not. I would be so glad if i found out why

examples:

$x = 1000

$y = 4000

it tells me that $vot = 1000 which is correct

but if i insert

$x = 104

$y = 24

it tells me that $vot = 104 :|

Just out of curiousity why did you make three threads?

try this:

$phrases = StringSplit("less than|greater than|equal to", "|", 2)
$phrase = $phrases[0]

$x = InputBox(@ScriptName, "Enter number x")
$y = InputBox(@ScriptName, "Enter number y")

$diff = $y - $x
If ($y < $x) Then
    $phrase = $phrases[1]
    $diff = $x - $y
ElseIf ($y = $x) Then
    $phrase = $phrases[2]
EndIf

MsgBox(64, @ScriptName, "x(" & $x & ") is " & $phrase & " y(" & $y & "). Difference is " & $diff)

Edit: Wow, the 104,24 data screws this up too, hmm, what am i doing wrong..

Cause the interpreter dose not know that x and y are numbers .

$vot = 0
$x = Number(inputbox("aaa" , "bbb"))
$y = Number(InputBox("aaa" , "bbb"))
$z = abs($x - $y)
Select
Case($x < $y)
        $vot = $x
Case Else
    $vot = $y
EndSelect
msgbox(0,"aaa","x=" & $x & "y=" & $y & "z=" & $z & "vot=" & $vot)

You gave me a brilliant idea , i added $x+0 < $y+0 and it works just fine.

Thanks all for reply, i`ll go back to work , newbie doing stuff... take cover something might blow up

Sry for triple posting, really tired screwed up a bit.
