 Posted: Sun Jul 27, 2014 6:51 am Post subject: How to enclose "or" conditions into one condition? |
 |
|
This is the line I'm having trouble with:
| Code: | | if {[string match -nocase "abc" $txt] || [string match -nocase "def" $txt] || [string match -nocase "ghi" $txt] || [string match -nocase "jkl" $txt] && $nick eq "daigo"} |
Whenever someone says "abc" "def" or "ghi" the script responds to them, even though I stated that I want only the nickname "daigo" to be responded to. I assume this is because I need to enclose all 4 of the || conditions together, but I tried brackets [], {} and parentheses () but none of them work. |

I think parenthesis work.
Show us the line of code, exactly as you used it, that utilizes parenthesis. |

The parenthesis are necessary when you're using "".
For example, if I needed two conditions in an IF statement, ending in "", I would then use ( ) to keep it closed.
| Code: |
if {[lindex [split $arg] 0] ne ""} {
if {[string match -nocase "*matchthis*" $arg]} {
|
would then become
| Code: |
if {([lindex [split $arg] 0] ne "") && ([string match -nocase "*matchthis*" $arg])} {
|
This would fix your issue with the last condition of your statement; $nick eq "daigo"

Try it like this... | Code: | | if {([string match -nocase "abc" $txt] || [string match -nocase "def" $txt] || [string match -nocase "ghi" $txt] || [string match -nocase "jkl" $txt]) && $nick eq "daigo"} |

| Oh, this works..I thought I tried this already, but I must've made a typo somewhere. |

That's why I asked for your exact code, as you used it.  |
