It's not code, it's gibberish (which may be a new language).

Solution 2

When I converted it, I got this:

Syntax Error

Now what?

Solution 1

This line cannot be converted into VB.NET as it is no valid expression in any of those language I know - the syntax for the for-loop is wrong in C, C++, C#, Delphi, etc.
Or I am not familiar with that language...

You right, the expression is invalid. 5!

Thomas Maule 21-Dec-11 13:32pm

In the expression what does ' " ' between i and environment mean? or the ':'

Dave Kreskowiak 21-Dec-11 16:27pm

There's no way to tell since the entire expression makes no sense at all. The code you posted does not conform to any language we know of. It's impossible to tell you what that code does.

Henning Dieterichs 21-Dec-11 13:44pm

I dont know, you have written that code...
Generally " means string, : means conditional expression in connection to ? - which both are nonsense in a for-loop...
Additionally the "" in the second line makes no sense as it is no valid expression to (it is a single string-literal).
And the ); in the third line is nonsense, too. Either you loop over one line or you enclose the code to loop over with { and }.
What do you want to do with that piece of code?

I got the code from the web - it is part of a routine that converts rtf to html. I know nothing of C syntax so when I get the error in the online converter I have no idea if the code is meaningless or not. It actually errors on the first line of code and not this one but this blog wouldn't let me paste it all in.

Thanks for the help and I hope this post is as funny as the last for LanFanNinja - I'll do better to know the answers before I ask next time.

I got the code from the web

There's your problem. The code you lifted is wrong and won't compile under any circumstances. You'll have to get with the person who orignally posted it and have them correct the code.

>> I'll do better to know the answers before I ask

Even worse: When you know the answer you shouldn't ask ;)

The human beeing isn't able to know all the answers, but there is some basic knowledge for each topic he should know before asking. So I recommend you reading some basic tutorials for C# or at least C.

Dave Kreskowiak 21-Dec-11 19:56pm

I hope you're not telling me to go read up on C# and C/C++. I've been writing code for well over 30 years and know those languages, and many more, well.
