while loop

MagicShot · **Author**

How would you write a "while loop"?

BAILOPAN · 03-19-2004 , 19:11

while (condition)
{
//code
}

ex.. loop from 0 to 50
new i = 0
while (i++ < 50) {
//stuff
}

Thanx Bail!
How Does this Look?

Code:

weapname() {
    new i = 0 
    while (i++ < 50) { 
        if (weaponname[i][0] == weap) {
            curweap = i
            return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
        }
    } 
    return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
}

I think you need to read a bit about multidim character arrays...

if weaponname[X][], X goes up to 50, it'll work, but since I don'tknow what you're doing, eh. weap isn't even defined, what is it?

MagicShot · 03-19-2004 , 21:59 Umm

Its part of that weap thing I am working on.. Most Current Source is here to see what it looks like.. Keep in mind.. Most of the Basics are there but not complete yet.. I think it the basics shoudl I think work.

most people use for loops for that kind of looping

Code:

new i;
for (i = 0; i <= 50; ++i)
{
   // stuff
}

that should be more readable for people new to scripting...

Hello , I'm trying to learn scripting and I have a question for you PM ,

Code:

new i; 
for (i = 0; i <= 50; ++i) 
{ 
   // stuff 
}

What does that do? I know it's an example and not a plugin but explain to me a bit more I'm new
