How to write BETWEEN x and y in mql5 ?

New comment
 

Hi!


I've been writing a code but its getting loong, i cant find a way to make it smaller, i need candle[1] to be different  than all candles between [2] and [9] (just an example). How do i do that without having to write candle[1] != candle[2] &&... one by one?


if (candle[1] != candle[2] && candle[1] != candle[3] && candle[1] != candle[4] && candle[1] != candle[5]

   int candle[9];
   //code to fill candle array
   bool isEqual=false;
   int size=ArraySize(candle);
   for(int x=2; x<size; x++)
      {
      if(candle[1]==candle[x])
         {
         isEqual=true;
         break;
         }
      }
   if(isEqual)
      {
      //Do whatever when an equal value is found
      }
   else
      {
      //Do whatever when an equal value is NOT found
      }

Not compiled or tested.

  1. Doubles are rarely equal. Understand the links in:
              The == operand. - MQL4 programming forum #2 2013.06.07

  2. Write a loop like Keith showed.
