5 > 14?

[EDIT] *SOLVED*

Thanks to everyone that helped

Without even starting to read your "book" and going on the topic title: I am pretty sure you are comparing strings not numbers.

Convert the variables to Numbers by doing Number($var) and see if that solves it ....

Sorry about the textwall, but even including Number() around the variables, 18 should not be considered less than 5.

I'm sure that it isn't. Can you produce an example which we can run where Number("18") is shown to be less than Number("5")?

You are using a 4-dimensional array, that is the first sign of bad coding.

Why is it bad? If you don't need 4 dimensions then ok, but there are times when you need a 4-dimensional array, so what's bad about them?

they melt your brainz.

I say once your array has more than 3 dimensions its time to rethink the logic of your code, and perhaps use the Scripting Dictionary.

I couldn't agree more. I don't think I have ever seen a NEED for a 4-D array

[blademonkey]

maybe you need to time travel...

If (Number($player[$user][4][$atk_attacker][0])) > (Number($player[$atk_targetplayer][4][$atk_defender][1])) Then;ATK > DEF

LOL

you shouldnt use 4d arrays...

and what if I store 3d arrays inside an array...

[PsaltyDS]

My GrandUnifiedTheory.au3 UDF only works because of 11D arrays in AutoIt. Used to use 20D, but that made my Brane hurt... until I simplified it with my _StringTheoryRegExp() function.

I've been known to use nested 2D arrays because is makes recursion easier. I think Pinhead mentioned 4D arrays in Hellraiser though.

LMAO!

Now, does your _StringTheoryRegExp() integrate well into _QuantumTheoryRegExpReplace()?

In general, yes, but the special case of _QuantumGravityGet() we got some compile errors...

@Dicemaster. Have you tried to run your sample code? Tried to run it from SciTe4AutoIt3?

How is $atk_defender declared and used?

1: Structur your code (break it up and testable chunks).

2: Use test cases (Search for unit test in the wiki)

How do you log the values returned when 5<4 failes? My guess, your 5 is a space or somethinge else that makes the test valide.

testLessThan()
Exit
func testLessThan()
    LessThan(1, 2)
    LessThan(2, 1)
    LessThan(" ", 4)
    LessThan(4, " ")
EndFunc
Func LessThan($arg1, $arg2)
    If $arg1 > $arg2 Then
        ConsoleWrite("$arg1:?=" & $arg1 & " > $arg2:=" & $arg2 & @crlf)
    EndIf
    Return ($arg1 < $arg2)
EndFunc

Happy coding..

did you remember to do #include<superpositioning.au3> ?

[PsaltyDS]

did you remember to do #include<superpositioning.au3> ?

I started to, but it lead to this:

#include<superpositioning.au3>

$x = 5
$y = "14 "
If $x > $y = True Then MsgBox(16, "Error", "Einstein was wrong!")

So I started writing my own scripting language. AutoIt is obviously too buggy for this stuff!
