Syntax error? :S

[NickBomb]

Hi!I need help with an if thingie:

	var r=Math.random()	if (r<=0.1)			  // 1	{	 monsternamn = "Råtta"	document.getElementById('textmonsternamn').value=monsternamn;	 monsterhp = 10	 monsterexp = 10	document.getElementById('textmonsterhp').value=monsterhp;	}	else if (r=>0.1 && r<=0.3) //2	{	 monsternamn = "Padda"	document.getElementById('textmonsternamn').value=monsternamn;	monsterhp = 7	monsterexp = 7	document.getElementById('textmonsterhp').value=monsterhp;	}	else if (r=>0.2 && r<=0.4) //3	{	 monsternamn = "Groda"	document.getElementById('textmonsternamn').value=monsternamn;	 monsterhp = 5	monsterexp = 5	document.getElementById('textmonsterhp').value=monsterhp;	}	else if (r=>0.3 && r<=0.5) //4	{	 monsternamn = "Vägg"	document.getElementById('textmonsternamn').value=monsternamn;	 monsterhp = 100	 monsterexp = 100	document.getElementById('textmonsterhp').value=monsterhp;	}	else if (r=>0.4 && r<=0.6) //5	{	 monsternamn = "Gris"	document.getElementById('textmonsternamn').value=monsternamn;	 monsterhp = 14	 monsterexp = 14	document.getElementById('textmonsterhp').value=monsterhp;	}	else if (r=>0.5 && r<=0.7) //6	{	 monsternamn = "Noshörning"	document.getElementById('textmonsternamn').value=monsternamn;	 monsterhp = 55	 monsterexp = 55	document.getElementById('textmonsterhp').value=monsterhp;	}	else if (r=>0.6 && r<=0.8) //7	{	 monsternamn = "Älg"	document.getElementById('textmonsternamn').value=monsternamn;	 monsterhp = 43	 monsterexp = 43	document.getElementById('textmonsterhp').value=monsterhp;	}	else if (r=>0.7 && r<=0.9) //8	{	 monsternamn = "Fågel"	document.getElementById('textmonsternamn').value=monsternamn;	 monsterhp = 10	 monsterexp = 10	document.getElementById('textmonsterhp').value=monsterhp;	}	else if (r=>0.8)		 // 9	{	 monsternamn = "Mask"	document.getElementById('textmonsternamn').value=monsternamn;	 monsterhp = 1	 monsterexp = 1	document.getElementById('textmonsterhp').value=monsterhp;	}

I get syntax error in:

	else if (r=>0.1 && r<=0.3) //2

Please help, I don't get what's wrong...

Greater than or equal to is >= rather than =>.

Ok....But I don't get where to replace, when I changed it, it still gave the same error (syntax error).Sorry for such n00bieness, but I really don't get these => and == and === and >= and.... well operators in short Can you make the code correct? if you have time and if you want to...

[jesh]

I think you ought to read over the section of the javascript tutorial which deals with operators. It could be of great help:http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_operators.aspIn the meantime, you might be better served with something like this:

if(r <= 0.1) // 1{}else if (r <= 0.2) // 2{}else if (r <= 0.3) // 3{}else if (r <= 0.4) // 4{}// and so on and so on...

Or with this:

var r = parseInt(Math.random() * 10)if(r == 1){}else if (r == 2){}else if (r == 3){}// and so on and so on.

Thank you VERY much!I did not know you could do that the randomizing just randomizes a integer, thank you very much!!How do I do that it randomizes i.e. a integer between 1 - 50? is it just to putvar r = parseInt(Math.random() * 50)or is it more advanced?

[jesh]

Math.random() returns a number between 0 and (almost) 1. Let's say you wanted to return a number between 1 and 10 instead. You could do it like this:

var r = Math.random();  // number between 0 and 0.99999999r = r * 10;  // number between 0 and 9.99999999r = Math.floor(r);  // number between 0 and 9;r = r + 1;  // number between 1 and 10;

A more simplified version is:

var r = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10) + 1;
