An easy question... but I can't figure it out

Angela1

Hello, quick question: Are there any "less than or greater than" commands in stamp? I am trying to perform an instruction within a set of values so the·< and·> little guys would be very helpful... >_<

SRLM

Of course. Take a look in the Basic Stamp Syntax and Reference Manual under 232.

hmmmm, i think we have different manuals... unless you mean using the POLLRUN command from the Basic·Stamp Manual v.2...·Is that right???

Take a look at the helpfile... look at the IF statement. It lists < and > as valid Comparison operators.
Is this what you meant? If not please explain what your trying to do so we can better help you.

I'm using version 2.2

Angela,

The math operators are all explained in one section near the beginning, and also there is a long section on the IF command and its variants, and the SELECT:CASE command, and the LOOKDOWN command.
examples:

IF x<500 AND x>=200 THEN GOTO midrange

SELECT x
  CASE >=500
     GOTO highrange
  CASE <200
     GOTO lowrange
  CASE ELSE
    goto midrange
ENDSELECT

LOOKDOWN x,<[noparse][[/noparse]200,501,65535],y
' y is 0,1, or 2 depending on range of x
