Math Question

osucowboy18

Hey everyone,

So I'm just about finished with version 2.0 of iJetSki, but want to include one last feature before I submit to Apple. Every 10 games the user plays, I want a message box to pop up asking the user if they want to rate my app. Can someone please provide a mathematical way of doing this besides if game.TimesPlayed = 10/20/etc, then show message box. Thanks.

After it's ten, make it go back to 1 again instead of moving on to 11.

WOW, why didn't I think of that Thanks Asymptoteell.

here is the math way to do that:

when you increment the game.TimesPlayed make it
(games.TimesPlayed%10)+1

I thought it was (game.timesplayed+1)%10

Have I been doing this wrong all along?

No CM is just losing his croutons that's all.

scitunes's method would be used to check for 0 whenever the game has been played 10 times

CM's method would be used to check for 1 whenever the game has been played 10 times

you could really check for any number between 0 and 9 for either method, the difference is when it first returns true... every other time after that will be an increment of 10 from the first

Thanks for your help guys, I just finished testing it, now I'm gonna submit version 2.0 of iJetSki to Apple!
