Hi all,
Been working on some code that would take an Int or string(not sure which one it is)
and add it to another int or string.
for example:
int Count = 0
Count = Total accumulated // Max 200
Count = Count + 20 //random number between 0-200
when count = 200
reset count to 0
and run some one off code.
I'v been getting some advice from a different post but im guessing there asleep now, I was asked to try and work this out for my self, Its been 6 hours now and im tired, and I would really like to get this done in the next hour or at least workout why my code dont work. Hopefully you can make sense of it.
I'v commented the new code like this "// NEW CODE" so you can find it easily.
Best Regards
Dave
