Testing for concept matches in IF clause
  
 
Posted: Aug 10, 2017

Here are some newbie questions pertaining to syntax obstacles I couldn’t easily figure out from the documentation.

1- In an IF test, how do you test for things contained in concepts?

This does not seem to be working:

if ( $bobsreligion == ~religious_sect ) {$bobisreligious = 1}

2- How do you set one variable to another variable?

Like

u: () $thisisbobsreligion = $bobsreligion

?


Thank you for any response!!

If test uses ? to test set membership, so if ($bobsreligion ? ~religious_sect)

In a pattern one does a similar behavior without spaces:  u: (_~building _0?~religious_sect)

By set one variable to another, you mean store the NAME of a variable into another or transfer values. Your code is correct for copying values across
