Question by Posly · Feb 02, 2012 at 10:57 PM · ifstatement

How do you say in between for an if statement?

How would I say:

function Update () { if(transform.position.x "is in between number x and number y") { ( "do stuff" ) } }

You need to do :

 if( transform.position.x >= A && transform.position.x <= B ) ...

What you need to see here :

  • A must be lower than B
  • if you want an exclusive interval, don't use >= but > etc
  • The use of && means that both statement MUST be true.

I'm trying to get it to check between two different X positions, how would I go about this?

Late reply. Info for the future finders I guess.

 A = 5; //or whatever lower number
 B = 10; //or whatever higher number
 if( transform.position.x >= A && transform.position.x <= B ){/*do stuff*/};

This code Berenger gave IS how you would check between the two different x positions, being defined by your variables, A and B.

Right, it may be a bit confusing to name the two values "x" and "y", though he just took that na$$anonymous$$g from the original question. I would never name a limit for a x axis position "y" ^^. Though technically it doesn't matter whatsoever. You can name one "richard" and the other "eth5ju3n2gd".


For a general example it would be better to use generic names like "A" and "B" just like you did. I'm going to edit Berenger's answer so it's less confusing for future readers.

not sure if there is a better way, but you could just have nested if statements

 if (x<100)
 {
   if (x>50)
    {
     print ("we're now in between 50 and 100... woohoo!!");
    }
 
 }

That's a good idea thanks!

Though this works, Berenger's method is much more elegant and widely accepted as the standard.

Yeah I agree, I just didn't know what the syntax for it was.
