How to express 'BETWEEN' range
|
|
|
| How do I write a statement that is true only when a variable falls
between two values as in 2 - 5 ?
is this it ?: if x >= 2 | x <= 5 then ...
I would have thought rexx might support something like SQL where you
can say 'if x between 2 and 5 then ...'
Cheers

No.
It should read: if x>=2 & x<=5 then ...

| and I always 'show' the between by writing
If 2<=x & x<=10 Then... /* x is between 2 and 10 - inclusively */

Inside a range is and (&) as above, outside a range is or (|)
if x <2 | x > 5 then
