Hi everyone , i just got my CFX 9850GC and started to programm some simple things

I want a program thats ask a question , and then you push 1 for Yes 2 for No
But i can only make one answer

My code for exampel:

"Do you like cookies"?->A
If A=1
Then "Okey so you do like cookies"
If A=2
Then "Okey you hate cookies"

I can only pick "1" , if i pick "2" it dosent work.

Can somebody tell me what im doing wrong , thank you

Hi
If I were you I would write this like that:

If A=1
Then "Okey so you do like cookies"
IfEnd
If A=2
Then "Okey you hate cookies"
IfEnd

or

If A=1
Then "Okey so you do like cookies"
Else If A=2
Then "Okey you hate cookies"
IfEnd
IfEnd

or

If A=1
Then "Okey so you do like cookies"
Else "Okey you hate cookies"
IfEnd

It should work!

Thanks mate

If i now want the numbers to be letters instead

1= Yes
2= No

Code ATM:

"Do you like cookies"?->A
If A=Yes
Then "Okey so you do like cookies"
IfEnd
If A=No
Then "Okey you hate cookies"
IfEnd

Why dosent that work?
It just gives me all answers when i type any letter , it can be q , b , c and so on.

That's because the CFX sees "Yes" and "No" as variables, not characters. So your "Yes" would be Y x e x s, multiplication, and "No" as N x o (multiplied).

If you are only using 1 line conditions, you don't need 'If' statements.
Like so:

A=1=>"So you do like cookies."
A=2=>"So you don't like cookies."

If you really want the user to type in 'Yes' and 'No' even though it is easier to use 'Y' and 'N', there is a way you can do it:
lets say you assign the variables A~Z with the values 1-26.
Now, YES = 25 x 5 x 19.
You could do the same thing with 'Y' and 'N', however for the most fluidity, you could test for keypresses and not 'typed in input'.
Eg:

While G=/=32 And G=/=64
Do:Getkey->G
LpWhile G=0
G=32=>"So you do like cookies."	 // 32 is the keycode for Y
G=64=>"So you don't like cookies." // 64 is the keycode for N
WhileEnd

In the above example, as soon as the user presses Y or N the program will react. This is useful for action games. The first while statement is to make sure the user pressed either Y or N, if they didn't, it will start the whole loop again. If anything puzzles you, ask about it.

Note: If you don't know which keycodes you need, either find a key listing online or make a new program with this code:

While 1
Locate 1,1,Getkey
For 1->A To 50   // pause for a bit
Next
WhileEnd

Now, when you run the program, just tap the key you want the keycode of and it will display it!
