Description
- Description:
- Returns whether one value is not equal to another. String comparison is case-insensitive (e.g
"STRINGtext" != "stringTEXT" // returns false). - Groups:
- VariablesMath
Syntax
- Syntax:
- a != b
- Parameters:
- a: Number, Side, String, Object, Group, Structured Text, Config, Display, Control, Location, Diary Record (since Arma 3 v2.00), Namespace (since Arma 3 v2.00), Boolean (since Arma 3 v2.00)
- b: Number, Side, String, Object, Group, Structured Text, Config, Display, Control, Location, Diary Record (since Arma 3 v2.00), Namespace (since Arma 3 v2.00), Boolean (since Arma 3 v2.00)
- Return Value:
- Boolean - true if a is different from b
Examples
- Example 1:
if (_counter != 4) then { hint "The counter is not equal to the number 4"; }- Example 2:
if (vehicle player != player) then { hint "you are in a vehicle"; } else { hint "you are on foot"; }- Example 3:
if (fuel truck1 != 1) then { hint "Truck1 has less than a full tank of fuel."; }- Example 4:
- Since Arma 3 v2.00
if (alive _unit1 != alive _unit2) then {hint "One of the units is dead while another is alive"};
