simple picbasic question

hi pplz
I know the answer for this will be in the pdf files, but I am on a laptop without acrobat, and dont have the time to download it.

In the following scenario... do I need the endif

if something and something and something then
do something here
else do something else
endif <-- do I need this, or does the 'else' above cover it??


thanks

you need it, else stops the first part, endif stops the next..


oh, and im on a netbook with 9" monitor and 89% sized keyboard

ok cool, thanks for that.

I'm using an eeepc too.. whats your point?

I am also using an eeepc.

Perhaps you can meet up somewhere romantic and compare RAM sizes?

Not a case of it stopping after the first part . . .

it will not even compile.
Try to download and you will get a syntax message along the lines:
"Error: If without Endif"

Ok, I may be missing something here, what is the relevance of using an EEEPC in this thread, or is there no relevence?

It's probably implying that even the meanest netbook should have .pdf reading software installed.

your right.. it probably should. but I only installed the OS last week, and I'm sure as hell am not going to download Adobe reader through my bluetooth connected phone on a 5mb plan!! Hence.. its just easier to ask.

I tried to imply that even on a netbook you would be able to figure it out, even without an pdf reader (syntax check), and that would be faster than making a forum thread about it.

Also there is alternatives to adobe, although on a 5megabyte plan they will all eat a big chunk.

Anyways it got solved
