I had some strange problems(for me) with logical operators in dbpro. Can anyone tell me please why does this code gives an error:


Error: Both operands are required for non-uniary operations at line 198.
Minus and Minus2 are the constants for the - Keystate Number

Also, does anybody know a good tutorial for dbpro complex logical expressions? As far as i have seen, all tutorials present simple examples of AND, OR, etc. usage.

Thanks!

This code works fine for me:



I did notice that the word minus is highlighted as if it is a keyword, if DBP is trying to perform a mathematical operation with that command, the error message would make sense to me.

Perhaps you're also doing something wrong after the if statement?

There's a lot of scattered information, but no real tutorial. You'll have to search the forums for more information.

There are two types of logical operators, bytewise and bitwise operators.

Bytewise
-AND
-OR
-NOT
-XOR

Bitwise
>> (bitshift right)
<< (bitshift left)
&& (bitwise and)
|| (bitwise or)
~~ (bitwise xor)
.. (bitwise not)

This is from the help files:

thanks for your answer

Minus and Minus2 are defined constants for the symbol -. they are 12 and 74(from numpad)

The problem is with Minus2. If i put the value 74 the program works fine, although i have defined both numbers. still working on finding out why.
