while loop failing to check statement - Dr.Einstein - 26.01.2014

In the following code, the while loop fails to assign a value to a variable.

Код:

enum IN
{
rNum,
rVar
};
new lCheck[MAX_PLAYERS][IN];

lCheck[player][rNum] = 0;
while(lCheck[player][rNum] == 0)lCheck[player][rNum] = random(50);

The value of rNum will always be zero. I don't know if this is an issue for me only. The way I got around this is by doing the following.

Код:

new rRock = 0;
while(rRock == 0)rRock = random(50);
lCheck[player][rNum] = rRock;

I know it isn't the end of the world but why would this happen?

pawn Код:

while(rRock == 0)rRock = random(50);

This could randomly pick 0, try this:

pawn Код:

while(rRock == 0)rRock = random(50) + 1;

And your issue is common elsewhere, like when you save score it requires you set a variable then save it.

Very foolish of me. I could have just done this:

Код:

 lCheck[player][rNum] = random(50)+1;

Much obliged Weponz.
