Hi Paul

"and" will evaluate both to make sure x=3D1 and y=3D2
"or" will evaluate both as well, but only one x or y=20
      needs to be true to =3D to "puts"

besides, I believe you answered your own question
in "puts" didnt you?

  Subject: Or What?


  Hello,

  I've been wrting a program that needs to check a few instances before =
executing an if statement. Like so:

  if X=3D1 (somecommand) Y=3D2 then
  puts(1,"X=3D1 and Y=3D2")
  end if

  Can I use or for this? Is it as literal as it sounds? Like if this =
variable or this variable equals this, then do the following.(?)

  -Thanks
  -Thomas
