looping and expressions

[PuzzledGreatly]

Please consider this code:

Code: Select all

test = 2
loop, % test < 3 ? test : 0
soundbeep

This gives me three beeps and if test is greater than 3 one beep, not zero beeps. Can someone explain why, please. Thanks.

Code: Select all

test := 2
loop, % test < 3 ? test : 0
soundbeep

Gives two beeps here, all else is as expected. Still works with test as a string:

Code: Select all

test := "4"
loop, % test < 3 ? test : 0
soundbeep

and also with

Code: Select all

test = 3
loop, % test < 3 ? test : 0
soundbeep

What's the version of AHK over there?

Thanks for the reply. I'm using version 1.1.33.02.

I wonder if you just forgot to save your script. I don't see how you could get three out of this. Here's another to test.

Code: Select all

test := 2
Loop, % test < 3 ? test : 0
 Send %A_Index%

Sorry, it wasn't that I hadn't saved my scrip but rather that the script had an errant soundbeep hiding right at the top of the script and out of sight in my editor window. Thanks for the replies and myMy apologies for not double-checking my script before posting.
