Those already exist ;)
Since 0.4.5, I think, although they were buggy until recently.

Oh.

Let's say that I have this:

Code: [Select]
If A=1
    .Do something
End
If A=2
    .Do something
End
...
If A=(some_number)
    .Do something
End

This can be shortened to
Code: [Select]
If A=1
    .Do something
ElseIf A=2
    .Do something
ElseIf ...(etc.)
    .Do something
ElseIf A=(some_number)
    .Do something
End

It can be useful when you have a whole string of If statements -- it makes things easier.

However, if you use ElseIf, once one part becomes true, it skips all the other If statements.

So if I have
Code: [Select]
3->A
If A>1
    Text(10,10,Str1)
End
If A>2
    Text(10,20,Str2)
End
That would display both Str1 and Str2.
But if I have
Code: [Select]
3->A
If A>1
    Text(10,10,Str1)
ElseIf A>2
    Text(10,20,Str2)
End
That would display only Str1 because that was the first conditional to become true.

All I need was to be told 'ElseIf' but you made a great explanation.

Looks very good, well-explained ;D

I always like you indent your Axe code, I've seen some code made by you and I always love it.

ElseIf is Elif

And you cant repeat elses, one else per if.

Wow, old ninja. :P I guess I should have refreshed.

Are you talking about me? :P
Also, is there a way to compile a program externally?

Nope, that's been suggested several times, but someone would have to get Quigibo's permission (and the source for Axe) to make an off-calc compiler. You can use Wabbit, though.

I think he means compile a program externally, but still on calc.  Like a hook or an entry point.

I think he means a PC compiler, but if he meant a hook... Has a hook for Axe like Celtic ever been tried?

Code: [Select]
If A=1
    .Do something
End
If A=2
    .Do something
End
...
If A=(some_number)
    .Do something
End

This can be shortened to
Code: [Select]
If A=1
    .Do something
ElseIf A=2
    .Do something
ElseIf ...(etc.)
    .Do something
ElseIf A=(some_number)
    .Do something
End

Just to clarify, this would not shorten the code, but actually make it larger since they work in 2 different ways.  The elseif is actually the same as this:
Code: [Select]
If A=1
    .Do something
    Goto E
End
If A=2
    .Do something
    Goto E
End
...
If A=(some_number)
    .Do something
End
Lbl E

So you should ONLY use elseif's if you need to enforce that exactly one of the statements will execute.  In your example, the regular if statements are smaller because you're already guaranteed that A can only hold a single number.  However, its true that the elseif is faster since it only needs to check conditionals until it finds the true one instead of checking all of them.

So double post I guess:

The next beta has arrived!  :) In case you were wondering, the new axiom is called "MemKit" can can be found in the "Tools" section of the zip file.   The developer information for developing your own axiom is in the "Developers" section.  Since the Axioms are new I expect bugs, so please report them if you feel that something is not working the way it should.  Haven't found any yet though.

Edit: Actually I did hehehe....
