Hello,

Does anyone here know how to set a variable value based on the output of an IF statement so that my variable value is dependent on the IF outcome?

I tried the code below but I am not getting any value outputs for varA1

double varA1:

if(condition)
{varA1 = value1}
else
{varA1 = value2}

Many thanks in advance

You can download and open most code available in the Downloads section and see for yourself.


For example, this snippet works

 
Code
					if (L0 >= A)       
					{ 
						deltaM =   tv;	
					} 
					
				   	if (L0 <= B)       
					{ 
						deltaM =  -tv;	
					}


It's probably a matter of using the right syntax.
