Set value of parameter based on value of switch

[hmihalis1]

Hi,

I want to set the value of a parameter based on the value of a switch node, so if switch is 0 set the parameter to 1, if its 1 set the parameter to 10. Could anyone help with this?

currently I am trying

if((ch("../switch1/input")=0,1,10)

could anyone tell me where im going wrong?

thanks

is it what you want ?
val = ch("../switch1/input") ? 1 : 10;

but if you are not comfortable with vex it's more simple and readable to write :

if(ch("../switch1/input") == 0){
  val = 1;
}else{
  val = 10;
}

you have parenteses mismatch, but most importantly you need to use == for equals 

if(ch("../switch1/input")==0,1,10)

  also this would work 

if(ch("../switch1/input"),10,1)

I've never seen this syntax

is this the  "ch("../switch1/input") ? 1 : 10;"  equivalent in expressions ?

Yes, it's hscript, simply different language and therefore different syntax from VEX

Ah, so much for me, I was the one who was uncomfortable here. haha
