Question

Wow…I’ve never seen this before. Any way to get around it?

foreach( double r in portfolioReturns)
        {
            if (-8.0 < r < -7.0)
            {
                n8++;
            }}

Answer 1

You are effectively doing this

if ((-8.0 < r) < -7.0)

Since (-8.0 < r) evaluates to a boolean, you can’t compare it to a float. Do this instead:

if (-8.0 < r && r < -7.0) {
  //code here
}
