Hello,
While IIF works on ARRAY,
if/else works on INDIVIDUAL number/boolean (element of the
array).
Therefore you should write either
a1 = IIF( C > Ref( C, -1 ), 1, 0 );
(or even: a1 = C > Ref( C, -1 );
or iterate:
for( i = 1; i < BarCount; i++ )
{
if ( Close[ i ] > Close[ i - 1 ]
)
a1[ i ] = 1;
else
a1[ i ] =
0;
}
It is important to understand that IIF is a FUNCTION that
works on arrays,
while if/else is control flow STATEMENT.
Function just evaluates all arguments and returns
value(s)
Control flow statement changes program flow.
This is fundamental difference.

<SPAN
class=934273705-14042003>Steve,
Your
example makes sense yet does not seem to work for me. Else seems to be ignored
. Using the IIF this would simply be ......
<SPAN
class=934273705-14042003>a1=iif(c>ref(c,-1),1,0); I am certainly
missing something here.... your input appreciated..

AmiBroker 4.31.0 BETA Examples
Hi Ken,
I think the concept of loops and if-then-else is the same in
all languages. I imagine you could read up on it at many
websites (e.g. - MSDN scripting site). Once you grasp the concept, it is just
a matter of using AFL syntax. You would probably use it mostly for iterating
your arrays if you wanted to do that. Here is a simple pseudo-code - try
coding it in AFL:
For (SecondBar to LastBar)
If (Today's Close > Yesterday's
Close)
MyArray = 1
Else
MyArray = 0
Plot MyArray
Of course, please feel free to ask for help!
Steve
