validate either if or switch case

[oracle765]

Hi Professionals

 

I am trying to validate a policy type variable and I am not sure which way to go around it, is there a better way through a switch or case statement or something

 

code attached

 

 

and thanks in advance

policytype.txt

it kind of depends on if there are or can be other values accross in any set and if there are or can be other values down with 5,...10... or higher?

 

and do you need to validate that the values being tested are only in those sets of values or is just getting the number from the end enough?

I am not sure what you mean by 5 10 or higher

 

that is the only values there are

based on your reply -

$policytypeid = substr($policytypeid, -1);

hi Mac_gyver

 

I have no idea what you mean lol

 

so I can do

 

switch if $policytypeid = substr($policytypeid, -1); then ??

switch if $policytypeid = substr($policytypeid, -1); then ??

No, because that is not valid syntax,

 

Mac_gyver code will will return the last character from the string stored in $policytypeid. So if   $policytypeid   is set to   FamilyR2  then   substr($policytypeid, -1);   will return 2.
