Noob - Cycle through stored names and skip blanks
- by ActiveJimBob
NOOB trying to make my code more efficient. On scroll button push, the function 'SetName' stores a number to integer 'iName' which is index against 5 names stored in memory. If a name is not set in memeory, it skips to the next.
The code works, but takes up a lot of room. Any advice appreciated.
Code:
#include <string.h>
int iName = 0;
int iNewName = 0;
BYTE GetName ()
{
return iName;
}
void SetName (int iNewName)
{
while (iName != iNewName)
{
switch (byNewName)
{
case 1:
if (strlen (memory.m_nameA) == 0)
new_name++;
else
iName = iNewName;
break;
case 2:
if (strlen (memory.m_nameB) == 0)
new_name++;
else
iName = iNewName;
break;
case 3:
if (strlen (memory.m_nameC) == 0)
new_name++;
else
iName = iNewName;
break;
case 4:
if (strlen (memory.m_nameD) == 0)
new_name++;
else
iName = iNewName;
break;
case 5:
if (strlen (memory.m_nameE) == 0)
new_name++;
else
iName = iNewName;
break;
default:
iNewName = 1;
break;
} // end of case
} // end of loop
} // end of SetName function
void main ()
{
while(1)
{
if (Button_pushed)
SetName(GetName+1);
} // end of infinite loop
} // end of main
