Quiz Question - Array

[Pickering, John (NORBORD)]

Depending on how many branches there are you could do soemthing really
brutal like the following:

define d-b1 char*1 = "Y" if <belongs to branch 1> else ""
define d-b2 char*1 = "Y" if <belongs to branch 2> else ""
define d-b3 char*1 = "Y" if <belongs to branch 3> else ""
define d-b4 char*1 = "Y" if <belongs to branch 4> else ""
...
define d-b13 char*1 = "Y" if <belongs to branch 13> else ""
define d-b14 char*1 = "Y" if <belongs to branch 14> else ""
...
define d-b25 char*1 = "Y" if <belongs to branch 25> else ""
...
define d-b50 char*1 = "Y" if <belongs to branch 50> else ""


define d-memotype char*50 & ; (or however many branches you've allowed for)
= d-b1 + d-b2 + d-b3 + d-b4 ... + d-b13 + d-b14 ... + d-b25 ... + d-b50

I could think of fancier ways with Qtp's item statements but you specified
Quiz. I'd also want to know more about what constitutes the test for
"belongs to branch n".
