BAM: [new] _MAPSET and _MAPGET

[CharlieJV]

Mine was a ridiculous use case scenario.


I am not particularly good at inventing hypothetical examples.

Maybe this is better:

Code: (Select All)

INIT:

  _initaudio

  _mapset("CARROT", 1)
  _mapset("CORN", 2)
  _mapset("POTATO", 3)

MAIN_PROGRAM:

  getselection:
    input "Search for recipes: enter one ingredient:", selection$
    selection$ = ucase$(selection$)
    if _mapget(selection$) = "" then beep : print "sorry, no recipes for " + selection$ : goto getselection

  on _mapget(selection$) gosub CARROT, CORN, POTATO

  goto getselection

  end

SUBROUTINES:

  CARROT:
    print "setup special processing for carrot-related recipes and info"
    RETURN

  CORN:
    print "setup special processing for corn-related recipes and info"
    RETURN

  POTATO:
    print "setup special processing for potato-relatd recipes and info"
    RETURN

Hmm.  That last sample would have been better with "ORANGE", "CARROT", "BEEF".   Just to highlight that the processing might be pretty different for fruit vs veggies vs meat.
