Using %pos
|
Ok what I'm trying to accomplish is a queue system. If for some reason, something needs to be taken out of the queue, i need to interact with 2 variables. One contains names, the other contains any of 3 different choices, so I need to find the position of a name in the first string. The issue is, when I use %pos, it counts the |'s used to separate values in a string. Is there a way I can avoid this so I can get the position number?
#var test {A|B|C|D|E|F|G}
#show %pos(F,@test)
yields 11...which it should be 6 |

%pos is for strings
try %ismember for string lists
| Code: |
| #show %ismember(F,@test) |
that yields 6 |
