Re: [Squeakland] Using binary conditions as a part of a Test Box

Hi, Offray!

For the present, one has to use *nested* Test Boxes to achieve the effect of the "ands" and "ors" you want.

Thus, where you want, for example

TEST ((elmer's x < 5) and (elmer's y < 5)) YES elmer make sound croak

this could be constructed as:

TEST elmer's x < 5 YES TEST elmer's y < 5 YES elmer make sound croak

or (to explicate my shorthand):

or, if you wanted code in the NO branch as well,

TEST (a and b) YES <some action> NO <some other action>

would be achieved by:

TEST a YES TEST b YES <some action> NO <some other action> NO <some other action>

and similarly for the (non-exclusive) OR,

TEST (a or b) YES <some action>

would translate into:

TEST a YES <some action> NO TEST b YES <some action>

etc.

Hi all,

There is a way to put two condition as a part of a Test Box in a Etoys script. We can add more operant to a condition, but all the operators are aritmetic ones: "+", "-", "*", "//", and "\" but there is a way to create a Test condition with "and" or "or"?

I don't know if I made myself clear enough.

Cheers,
