Little improvment to Select Case statement

[kulla]

I have one suggestion regarding Select State statements.

Now if I need to select more numbers or statements I can divide them by , but if I have a large difference like 25-90 it becomes pain to write all of them.

Suggestion is to add TO for numeric values, so it would be something like this

Select Case something
case 1 to 100

case 150 to 200

case else

end select

This was something that I missed in mikroBasic and thought that it's improved in Pro version.

One thing more because I can't edit my first post. Conditional statements could be also improved a bit so that we get nested if statemens in one line like

if something > 0 and something_else = 1 or something_more > 10 then

end if

Use brackets:

Code: Select all

if (something > 0) and (something_else = 1) or (something_more > 10) then

tnx for the help :-)

@Kalain: yes, we can assume that ME has bigger bugs/more important things to do, so this is not priority at all but it will come one day ;-)

Hi,

May be I did too much Microsoft Visual Basic and thought this was standard Basic instructions.
Yes, I know, Microsoft is not the reference but.....
