Hi everybody,

I was trying to build up an indicator but I'm looking for the "AND NOT" operator and I cannot find it.

I would like to say "&& NOT" but I cannot find it on NT. I found it on C# though....NOT is ! or ~.

It's actually presented on c# as logical negation: ! or bitwise complement: ~.

I tried with both symbols before and after "&&" and with or without space...Does not work.

Could you please tell me how can I write "AND NOT" on NT script?

Thank you very much in advance.

Regards,

Victor

&& = AND ALSO

not = !

like

if (x != y)
{
//do something
}

you are probably looking for
if (a == b && x != y)
{
//do something
}

To negate a condition enclose the condition in parentheses and precede it with the exclamation point, !

Putting that after the double ampersand gives the AND NOT operator.

If a is greater than 12 and a is not greater than 25
---> if a is greater than 12 AND NOT (a is greater than 25)


 
Code

if(  (a>12)     &&      ! (a>25)  )
Putting the exclamation point after the || gives the OR NOT operator.

if a is greater than 12 or b is NOT less than 6
--> if a is greater than 12 OR NOT (b is less than 6)

 
Code
if(  (a>12) ||  !(b<6)  )

Also, as in the previous example, the UNEQUAL TO operator is != .
NOT GREATER THAN !>
NOT LESS THAN !<

In practice use the AND NOT and OR NOT conditions above for more complex tests that cannot be done with simple inequalties.
