Scoring in CommCare

Users

Hi All,

I am getting a build error with the following if statement. The error says
there are only two arguments when we need three.

if(/data/duration <= "10","1", if(/data/duration>"10" and
/data/duration<="20", "2"), if(/data/duration>"20", "3"))

What I want is to calculate a score. It will equal 1 if duration is <=10, 2
if duration is between 10 and 20, and 3 if duration is greater than 20.
Duration is captured in another question called duration.

How do I resolve this?

Thanks,
Sangya

you want:

if(/data/duration <= 10, "1", if(/data/duration <= 20, "2", "3"))

every if() needs 3 arguments: (1) the condition, (2) what to do if the
condition is true, (3) what to do if the condition is false

Thanks Drew!!
Will this not score anything less than 20 as 2 because of the second
statement or the first if statement takes care of that?

yeah, if it's less than 10 you never get to the 2nd if() at all
