Math error...

[darkshadow791]

This is a really simple question with a possibly very simple question that I probably should know but don't, so I'm posting here.

The following code gives me very weird numbers and values for $percent... "1.#INF"

Local $temp = _FileCountLines("Definitions.txt")
    Local $percent = 0
    Local $perc = GUICtrlCreateProgress(0,(450/2)-(40/2),500,40)
    Local $lab = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Updating definitions...",(500/2) - 100,100,200,20)
    GUICtrlSetData($perc,$percent)
    For $count = 1 To $temp Step 1
        ;MsgBox(0,"",($count / $temp))
        $percent = (($count / $temp) * 100.0)
        GUICtrlSetData($perc,$percent)
        Local $temp = StringSplit(FileReadLine("Definitions.txt",$count),"|")
        $List[$count][1] = $temp[1]
        $List[$count][2] = $temp[2]
        ;Sleep(100)
    Next
    GUICtrlDelete($perc)
    GUICtrlDelete($lab)

Made with a simple textfile called definitions.txt that has lines of random txt with a "|" between them. The error occurs when $percent is being redefined in the for loop... And it makes my progressbar do weird things....

MsgBox(0, 'Divide by zero!', 1 / 0) = 1.#INF

Somewhere you're dividing by zero. I would be sure to check that $temp variable before throwing it into an equation.

Er whoa, wait, you're redefining temp within the for loop, that's why.

Watch what happens when I do this:

$toNum = 5
For $count = 1 to $toNum
  ConsoleWrite($count & ', ' & $toNum & @CRLF)
  $toNum = 0

*Edit²: Just had to mention, the Step 1 in your For loop is redundant. It steps by 1 by default.

The problem stemmed from the reuse of your variable $temp

Try this:

#include <file.au3>
Local $temp = _FileCountLines("Definitions.txt")
Local $percent = 0
Local $perc = GUICtrlCreateProgress(0,(450/2)-(40/2),500,40)
Local $lab = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Updating definitions...",(500/2) - 100,100,200,20)
GUICtrlSetData($perc,$percent)
For $count = 1 To $temp Step 1
    Local $temp2 = StringSplit(FileReadLine("Definitions.txt",$count),"|")
    MsgBox(0,"",($count / $temp))
    $percent = (($count / $temp) * 100.0)
    GUICtrlSetData($perc,$percent)
    Local $List[$count+1][3]
    $List[$count][1] = $temp2[1]
    $List[$count][2] = $temp2[2]
    ;Sleep(100)
Next
GUICtrlDelete($perc)
GUICtrlDelete($lab)

Hahaha, I can't believe I didn't see that before. Thanks

Edit:

I know step 1 is redundant, I just like doing it anyway (OCD)
