Actually let me clarify something:
<span
>condition<font
size=2 color=blue face="Arial CE"> expression= i<<span
class=SpellE>barcount; <font
size=2 color=blue face="Arial CE">means do the loop as long as i<
the current barcount (like cum(1))?? <font
size=2 color=red face="Arial CE">YES<span
>
<span
>this<font
size=2 color=navy face=Arial> would actually be something like do the loop as long as <span
class=SpellE>i<barcount where <span
class=SpellE>barcount = lastvalue(cum(1))

Peter

<span

<span
>I'm not sure what kind of book you would like, but
since TJ seems to follow C++ syntax, I can recommend a C++ book that I found to
be very good (pretty big though - over 1000 pages). It is very thorough and
easy to understand - definitely geared for beginners in my opinion. It is
"C++ Primer Plus" by Stephen Prata. I think you could probably just
read up on the items you are interested in if you aren't interested in learning
the whole language. Be careful because it seems that there are a couple of
other C++ books that call themselves "primers", but are
definitely NOT for beginners. Especially stay away from Stanley Lippman's book,
at least until you have some experience (take it from me....please!).

<span
>Hi Ken,
<span

<span
>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:
<span
>
<span
>For (SecondBar to LastBar)
<span
> If (Today's Close > Yesterday's Close)
<span
> MyArray = 1
<span
> Else
<span
> MyArray = 0
<span
>Plot MyArray
<span
>
<span
