IF Statement according to user input

Hi,

I am trying to create a basic script with an IF statement, I'm not that familiar if a CASE statement exist in JMP but what I'm try to do is similar to a case statement.

 

1. Ask the user to input a number ranging from 1-20 only

2. Create an if statement and execute the command with accordance to the user input

 For example: User input : 2

                        *Executes script inside bracket 2

 

Can you advise a basic tutorial set that might help with this?

You can be a more direct with your user interface.  Try this code:

nw = new window("Test",
 panel box("Click the icon to run the program: ",
  lineup box(ncol(2),
   text box("1. Tree Map"),
   button box("", << set icon("TreeMap"),
    << set function(include("treemap.jsl"))),

   text box("2. Neural Net"),
   button box("", << set icon("NeuralNet"), 
    << set function(include("NeuralNet.jsl"))),

   text box("3. Model Comparison"),
   button box("", << set icon("ModelComparison"), 
    << set function(include("ModelComparison.jsl"))),

   text box("4. SAS Pyramid"),
   button box("", << set icon("SASPyramid"), 
    << set function(include("SASPyramid.jsl"))),
  ),
 ),
);

You would substitute the appropriate code where I have .  To get the various icons use Justin Chilton's Built in JMP Icons addin.

 

Re: IF Statement according to user input

You can try something like this

userinput = New Window( "Collect user input", <<MODAL> 20,
 New Window("Error!!", Text Box("  Please input a number from 1 to 20 ONLY!  ")),
 if(num(number_input) == 1,
  //DO SOMETHING...
 num(number_input) == 2,
  //DO SOMETHING...
 );
);</MODAL>
