Re: EL Help?_Take III

["Stuart Lynskey" <slynskey@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ian

I'd attack it like this : { similar to what Pierre did - but basically lose 
all the conditional stuff }

Vars: PR(0), C1(0), C2(0);
PR = PercentR(10);

if  PR<PR[1] and PR[1]>=PR[2] then begin {Osc turns down}
C2 = RecentH ;  { save previous high value }
C1 = PR[1] ;  { capture new high value }
end ;

Then check RecentH is different to its previous value then do whatever.
