var z = (x < 6) ? x: y; trace (z); // returns 5 The following example shows a conditional statement written in shorthand: var timecode:String = (new Date().getHours() < 11) ? "AM" : "PM"; trace(timecode); The same conditional statement could also be written in longhand, as shown in the following example: if (new Date().getHours() < 11) { var timecode:String = "AM"; } else { var timecode:String = "PM"; } trace(timecode); -- decrement operator --expression expression-- A pre-decrement and post-decrement unary operator that subtracts 1 from the expression. The expression can be a variable, element in an array, or property of an object. The predecrement form of the operator (--expression) subtracts 1 from expression and returns the result. The post-decrement form of the operator (expression--) subtracts 1 from the expression and returns the initial value of expression (the value prior to the subtraction). Operands expression : Number - A number or a variable that evaluates to a number. Returns Number - The result of the decremented value. Example The pre-decrement form of the operator decrements x to 2 ( x - 1 = 2) and returns the result as y: var x:Number = 3; var y:Number = --x; //y is equal to 2 The post-decrement form of the operator decrements x to 2 (x - 1 = 2 ) and returns the original value of x as the result y: var x:Number = 3; var y:Number = x--; //y is equal to 3 132 ActionScript language elements
The following example loops from 10 to 1, and each iteration of the loop decreases the counter variable i by 1. for (var i = 10; i>0; i--) { trace(i); } / division operator expression1 / expression2 Divides expression1 by expression2. The result of the division operation is a doubleprecision floating-point number. Operands expression : Number - A number or a variable that evaluates to a number. Returns Number - The floating-point result of the operation. Example The following statement divides the current width and height of the Stage, and then displays the result in the Output panel. trace(Stage.width/2); trace(Stage.height/2); For a default Stage width and height of 550 x 400, the output is 275 and 150. See also % modulo operator /= division assignment operator expression1 /= expression2 Assigns expression1 the value of expression1 / expression2. For example, the following two statements are equivalent: x /= y; and x = x / y; Operands expression1 : Number - A number or a variable that evaluates to a number. expression2 : Number - A number or a variable that evaluates to a number.
