How can I do it ??	Can't Post

How would this be done?
# needs to cover all numbers(5.01,5.05,8.99...)between the two limits
if($t >= 5.00 BUT <=9.00) {
$total = $t * 10;
}else{
$total = 0;
}
print $total

thanks

You can use logical AND (&&) and logical OR (or) in order to define relations between several expressions,
i.e.
Exp1 && Exp2 will return true only if BOTH expressions are TRUE.
Exp1 or Exp2 will return true if at least ONE expression is TRUE (both true returns true also).

Here is what you need:

Code

if( ($t >= 5) && ($t <= 9) ) { 
}

Hello airo,

here's how to do:

Code

if ($t >=5 && $t<=9) {  
  $total=$t*10 
} else {  
  $total=0;  
}

you may probably want to check the perldoc perlop man page about C-Style Logical AND (&&).
And like there's more than one way to do it:

Code

$total = ( $t>=5 && $t<=9 ) ? $t*10 : 0;

(still on the perldoc perlop but about Conditional Operator (?))

i hope this helps
