What’s the equivalent of a c switch/case statement, as in:
switch (something) { case x: statement; break;
case y: statement(s); break;
…
}
(if-then-else doesn’t have many inputs)
Thanks very much anders. But when I try to make a box with any of these, nothing happens. How do I ‘plug this into’ om-sharp?
I see. Perhaps you could set up a 'lispfun and add the lisp code inside. Eg:
You can add further inputs by adding to the lambda clause: (lambda (x a b c …)
Thanks again, much appreciated. (I’m surprised this basic conditional is not available in the ‘core’ om-sharp, even as if-then-else-else-else…)
You can also use OR, which just evaluates its inputs until one returns a non-NIL value.
Connecting a AND on each branch might be a way to add an equality test along with a result/statement for this case, and implement pretty much an equivalent to Lisp’s COND.
I think I’ll try and work this up into a generalized flexible de facto case structure. If it works out, I’ll post it. Thanks Jean.
