String Switch?
« on: May 29th, 2004, 12:44am » |

im working a project and i have found that i am using multible if/then/else statements to check if a single variable is certain values, now i know that this is what switch does, but the variable im using is a string, and apparently switch doesnt like strings, does anyone have a hack/function that lets switch use strings or can someone tell me im an idiot and that im doing it wrong, or if its not possible can fry or someone else on development consider adding it in?
thanks in advance!

It's a stupid idea but you can convert the string into numbers, pass it through a switch...
Not sure what's so bad about using many if statements but it does make sense for convenience purposes for switch to take strings.
