Little question with OR

[xzaz]

$i = 3

if $i == 1 OR 2 OR 7 Then
    MsgBox(0,"","Yhe!")
Else
    msgBox(0,"","NO!")
Endif

Why do i get "Yhe!"? AND seems to work bether 0_o

This is a demo, hope it helps

For $i = 1 To 8

    If $i = 1 Or $i = 2 Or $i = 7 Then
        MsgBox(0, $i, "$i = 1 OR $i = 2 OR $i = 7", 2)
    ElseIf $i = 3 Then
        MsgBox(0, $i, "$i = 3", 2)
    Else ; not found
        MsgBox(0, $i, "Not Found", 2)
    EndIf

Next

8)

LOOOOOL So simple, dude sorry >.>

Should be more like

$i = 3

if $i == 1 Or $i == 2 Or $i == 7 Then
    MsgBox(0,"","Yhe!")
Else
    msgBox(0,"","NO!")
Endif

Break it down:

if $i == 1 OR $i == 2 OR $i == 7 Then

So $i can be any one of 1 or 2 or 7 to fire the "Yhe!" MsgBox

If the statement was made with AND then the condition could never be met.

Due to $i can not be a 1 and 2 and 7 all at the same time.

So the ,"Yhe!" msgbox could never be reached

And would mean all conditions must be met

Or would mean any one of the conditions can be met.

I don't think I explained it very well , but I had a go at it..lol
