 |
|
What is the equivalent of a NOT operator? I am trying to retrieve a tage value and toggle it. Would this work as well?
| Code: | | set tag(tag:lantern, (get tag(tag:lantern),XOR,true)) |

That works. I usually say "==false" instead of "NOT."

If you are making a tag toggle, you could say:
| Code: | if (check tag (tag:lantern))
then (set tag (tag:lantern, false)
else (set tag (tag:lantern, true)
|
(I'm just saying code off the top of my head; not sure if that's the exact syntax)

If you want a logical NOT, 'x == false' works fine, as well as many other expressions.
If you want a bitwise NOT (complementary bits), use 'x, xor, -1' (assuming that the sign bit is used in the mask, is it? If not, use 'x, xor, 32767')
Which is completely off the subject as the qustion has been answered. |

| Thank you very much. The "==false" is much less unwieldy (more wieldy?) than my XOR stuff. |
