I found these two scripts in the online section of ez robot script examples. Neither of them are working, not sure why.. Could someone please take a look? This is say time........

if ($hour>12) $hour_word=($hour-12) ELSE $hour_word=$hour endif

if ($hour_word=0) $hour_word=12 endif

if ($Minute = 0) $thetime = $hour_word ELSEif ($minute = 1) $thetime = "one minute past" + $hour_word ELSEif ($minute = 15) $thetime = "quarter past" + $hour_word ELSEif ($minute = 30) $thetime = "half past " + $hour_word ELSEif ($minute 30) $hour_word=$hour_word+1 $minute_word = 60-$minute $thetime = $minute_word + " minutes to " + $hour_word ELSE $thetime = $hour_word + $minute endif

if ($hour 21) $thetime = $thetime + " at night" ELSEif ($hour > 17) $thetime = $thetime+ " in the evening" ELSEif ($hour > 11) $thetime = $thetime + " in the afternoon" endif

$phrase=("The time is " +$thetime) ControlCommand("Script Manager", ScriptStart, "Speak phrase")

Sorry not sure how to format this code for the forum. Chris

Where did you find this? This isn't from an ezrobot example project. What are you wanting to do? It will make more sense to help if you could share what you're expected result is.

I cleaned the code to create this... is this what you wanted to happen?


if ($hour &gt; 12)
  $hour_word= $hour - 12
ELSE
  $hour_word=$hour
endif

if ($hour_word=0)
  $hour_word=12
endif

if ($Minute = 0)
  $thetime = $hour_word
ELSEif ($minute = 1)
  $thetime = &quot;one minute past&quot; + $hour_word
ELSEif ($minute = 15)
  $thetime = &quot;quarter past&quot; + $hour_word
ELSEif ($minute = 30)
  $thetime = &quot;half past &quot; + $hour_word
ELSEif ($minute = 30)
  $hour_word=$hour_word+1
  $minute_word = 60-$minute
  $thetime = $minute_word + &quot; minutes to &quot; + $hour_word
ELSE
  $thetime = $hour_word + $minute
endif

if ($hour = 21)
  $thetime = $thetime + &quot; at night&quot;
ELSEif ($hour &gt; 17)
  $thetime = $thetime+ &quot; in the evening&quot;
ELSEif ($hour &gt; 11)
  $thetime = $thetime + &quot; in the afternoon&quot;
endif

$phrase=(&quot;The time is &quot; +$thetime)
