Re: RPG COMP HiLoEq

I think that's correct - here's the documentation -

/High: (54-55)/ Factor 1 is greater than factor 2. /Low: (56-57)/ Factor 1 is less than factor 2. /Equal: (58-59)/ Factor 1 equals factor 2.

The indicators are not combined - the 2 factor values are compared, and an indicator is set when certain conditions are seen.

So equivalent free-form code would be

if factor1 > factor2;
   *in10 = *on;
elseif factor1 < factor2;
   *in10 = *on;
elseif factor1 = factor2;
   *in20 = *on;
endif;

or to simplify as Mark suggests,

if factor1 <> factor2;
   *in10 = *on;
else;
   *in20 = *on;
endif;

I wonder if both indicators need to be reset before either code block above. When Craig Rutledge converts RPG IV to free, I think he does something like that - been awhile since looking.

Booth,

It means "not equal"  AFAIK.

  C    A    COMP B                  101020

Is there a condition in which *in10 will be on?  In other words, can it
ever be that  A  COMP B is both Hi & Lo?  Or is that an OR condition?
