I don't have Visual Basic, which is what your code looked like, so I translated your code into Java, and fixed the undeclared variable stuff (did you compile this or just put it out there untested?) and this is what I got: StillDelayed: using PIII Ready! Using UltraSparcIII! So in essence what you're saying is use PIII until UltraSparcIII is released? Also, your involuted logic makes it difficult to figure out what your intention is: there is beauty in simplicity. Does VisualBasic increment the while counter before executing the loop? If so, Gak! If not, you blew it :) P. public class TestLoop { public TestLoop() { int UseProcessor = 0, PIII = 1; int Ready = 1, DelayedAgain = 1; int StillDelayed = 0; for (int SparkIII = 0; SparkIII < Ready; StillDelayed++) { if( SparkIII < Ready){ UseProcessor = PIII; Ready = StillDelayed; } System.out.println("StillDelayed: using " + (UseProcessor==PIII? "PIII": "UltraSparcIII")); } System.out.println("Ready! Using UltraSparcIII!"); } public static void main(String args[]) { new TestLoop(); } }
