Question

I have the code below. Now I want to run an if-else statement on it, but it’s not working. Any idea with this?

var num1 = $('#id1').val(); 
var num2 = $('#id2').val();

var newVal = (num1+2)*(num2/4);
var nextVal =(num1+4)*(num2/2);
var newArr = new Array();
newArr.push(newVal);
newArr.push(nextVal);

newArr.sort();

if(newArr.get(0)==newVal)
$("body").html("<p>works fine!</p>");
else $("body").html("<p>works awfully!</p>");

Answer 1

You declared “Var” with capital V on this line:

Var newVal = (num1+2)*(num2/4);

Also, access array’s elements with [index], instead of .get(index)

Here is edited code:

  var num1 = 50;   
  var num2 = 100;

  var newVal = parseInt((num1+2)*(num2/4));
  var nextVal =parseInt((num1+4)*(num2/2));
  var newArr = new Array();
  newArr.push(newVal);
  newArr.push(nextVal);

  newArr = newArr.sort(function(a,b){return a - b});

  if(newArr[0]==newVal)
    $("body").html("<p>works fine!</p>");
  else
    $("body").html("<p>works awfully!</p>");​
