does anyone know why

[Paul M Watt]

Are iYes and iNo supported? When we are forced to use those values I think we will have a problem.

Because they can. :-D

Well... in my CCBool function (a CBool replacement for VBScript), they can. I acknowledge True, T, Yes, Y and X as true, everything else as false. Or, to quoute a famous RFC... in good protocol design, you should be liberal in what you accept and pedantic about what you send (or something like that).

what is wrong with "YES" and "NO"? or do you want "YES", "NO", "Cancel"? :)

I think that would be

if ( YES == [iDont know] )
{
NSLog( @"I don't know" );
}

In that case, I would have assumed that a bool would equate to "Gay" and "Straight". Marc

I want a bool to be true or false. Not Yes or No! It's Objective C not bloody Prolog!!! The only time I want something in my program to evaluate to a "Yes" is when someone buys the damn thing. >.< I also loathe the IB & IBOutlet crap. CS4 got it so much more right, that I wish I could use it for a suitable native language.

Hmm... I would think sexuality would be better represented by a double whose value ranges between +1.0, exclusively heterosexual, and -1.0, exclusively homosexual (or vice versa).

I believe the mnemonic is iDunno, or possibly iGuess.

Funny you mention that. I was talking with someone who says that psychologists believe that it's rare that people are on one extreme or the other. I guess the theory is that the majority of people fall between -1 and 0 or 0 and 1, and some cross over 0. I don't know. I think most of psychology is BS, but I guess like anything, it has its uses, up to a point. Marc
