I was wondering if there is a more efficient way to check the value of a variable: i (i is used in a for loop).

I am currently doing this:

pawn Code:

for(new i = 0; i <= MAX_PLAYERS; (i != playerid) ? i++ : i += 2)
{ 
  print("Simon is a nubzorz."); // Not actually doing this, but w/e.
}

This gives me the following errors:

Code:

C:\PROGRA~1\ROCKST~1\GTASAN~1\Samp\GAMEMO~1\para.pwn(263) : error 022: must be lvalue (non-constant)
C:\PROGRA~1\ROCKST~1\GTASAN~1\Samp\GAMEMO~1\para.pwn(263) : warning 215: expression has no effect
C:\PROGRA~1\ROCKST~1\GTASAN~1\Samp\GAMEMO~1\para.pwn(263) : error 001: expected token: ";", but found ")"

4 Errors.

Line 263 is the for() line.

I know you can simply check with a continue statement, but I wondered if there was a 'safer' way.

The .pdf said that the variable must be non-constant, so that it can be modified, so I wasn't sure how that variable was not constant.

I did try asking on IRC, but it appeared that everybody was busy, idling, or perhaps just ignoring me

Thanks in advance,
