Strange: Error: Illegal assignment to for-loop variable "i"

[howardpc]

'if i in []' is simply a comparison, not a loop that alters the value of i in any way. You have to add some sort of looping construct (for, while, repeat) to force repeated changes in i's value, e. g.

Code: [Select]

i := 0;
repeat
 if i in [0..4, 11.100] then
  begin
   // whatever
  end;
  inc(i);
until (i > 100);

Sorry, my bad.  I see it now.  The 1st time I coded the loop and ran it thru the debugger, it appeared that nothing happened.  I added something to do this time and can see that it did in fact loop thru the entire set.

Thanks
