How to Condense Multiple

[Creeper13th]

Hi,

Is there any way to use multiple variables in a if statement. For instance instead of individually typing :

if(colour1 == "yellow"){
'do whatever'
}
if(colour2 == "yellow"){
'do whatever'
}

Say you had 100 colours and all you want to find out is if any of them equal yellow or red is there anyway to do so something like below:

if(colour1 or colour2 or colour3 == "yellow" or "red"){
'do whatever'
}

I'm relatively new at code, just trying to make it tidier and more efficient.

Any help would be Appreciated.

I would use a loop for something like this.

Example:

for(i=1;i<=100;i++){
if(this["color"+i] == "yellow" || this["color"+i] == "red"){
trace("do stuff");
break;
}
}

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply Wiz,

Sounds like that might be the go, a loop will cut the amount of code down.

Thanks
