Mannyfresh15 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) Ok I was writing a script where variables change value and I need to find out which one is the smaller value but greater than 0. I've tried out some codes in different ways but none work ): I don't know what I'm doing wrong since it's very simple math test. Well I'm posting the diferent codes I wrote, hope to get some head ups... BTW I'm new to Autoit, scripting and things. Test 1 expandcollapse popup;simple mathematics test to see which number is smaller but greater then zero ;whichever number is the smallest but greater than zero becomes true at the end $seven = False $ten = False $fifteen = False ;in this test $7 and $15 cannot be true unless we change the value Global $7 = 0,$10 = 10,$15 = 15 ; ; ; ;test 1 If $7 > 0 And $7 < $10 And $7 < $15 Then $seven = True If $10 > 0 and $10 < $7 and $10 < $15 Then $ten = True If $15 > 0 And $15 < $7 And $15 < $10 Then $fifteen = True ; if $seven = True Then MsgBox(0,"Notice!", "Seven is True" & @LF & "$7 is greater than 0 but smaller than $10 y $15",0) EndIf ;

Moderators Melba23 Posted June 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted June 17, 2016 Mannyfresh15, I would use an array like this: #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> Global $aValues[20] $aValues[7] = 0 $aValues[10] = 10 $aValues[15] = 15 Local $iResult = 9999, $iIndex For $i = 0 To UBound($aValues) - 1 $iValue = Number($aValues[$i]) If $iValue > 0 And $iValue < $iResult Then $iResult = $iValue $iIndex = $i EndIf Next MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Lowest value", $iIndex & @CRLF & $iResult) I think the code is self-explanatory. but please ask if you have any questions.

jchd Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 I'll just deal with test1, the rest being left as "an exercise to the reader". There, you test whether $7 is greater than 0, which it is not ($7 = 0 and 0 ≯ 0) so the whole condition is false and the first msgbox never shows. Then you test whether $10 < $7, which boils down to ask if 10 < 0, an obvious NO, so again the condition is false and nothing shows. Same for the third test, asking whether $15 < $7 (i.e. 15 < 0) and same as above. If you want to determine the smallest positive value from a bunch of variables, just do like Melba posted, use an array.

Mannyfresh15 Posted June 17, 2016 Author Share Posted June 17, 2016 M23, thanks for your example. However, it's quite confusing for a noob like me though. On the other hand I'm looking for something a lil more simple IDK if there is. You see in my test I just to identify the lowest value out of three different variables but exclude the one containing 0 is there is one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted June 17, 2016 Moderators Share Posted June 17, 2016 Mannyfresh15, if you only ever have 3 variables then you can simplify the code a bit: #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> ; Create an array with 3 elements Global $aValues[3] $aValues[0] = 0 ; Set these elements to your 3 values $aValues[1] = 10 $aValues[2] = 15 ; These are the placeholders for the value and its index within the array ; We set a ridiculously high value for the max value to start Local $iResult = 9999, $iIndex ; Loop through the array and check each value For $i = 0 To 2 ;This is the value we are checking $iValue = Number($aValues[$i]) ; if it is greater then zero and less that the current max If $iValue > 0 And $iValue < $iResult Then ; Store the value and its index $iResult = $iValue $iIndex = $i EndIf Next ; Display the lowest value that is greater then zero MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Lowest value", $iIndex & @CRLF & $iResult) Clearer now?
