2 Condition IF statement

[Sylvie]

How, in VCS c++ do I make an if statement with 2 variables.

I want to do something IF a joystick value is in between 2 numbers
I tried

if(controller1.axis3.value>=-10&&controller1.axis3.value<10){
     //brake motors
}

It didn’t work. Can anyone tell me the reserved word(s) I’m looking for?

You could write roughly the same thing with a single check as

if ( abs(controller1.axis3.value() ) < 10 ) {
}

Your code should work if you put the parentheses in after “value.”

ABS means absolute value, right?

abs means the function abs, which conveniently returns the absolute value of its argument as one might expect.

Speaking of functions, value is a method, and needs (arguments). Specifically, it needs no arguments, like this: ().

Are you saying his original code would have worked if it just had the () arguement?

Yes, which is why I wrote this above:
