case structure help

[prober]

hi all,

i want to write a tiny program which tells if the number the user entered is negative or positive or zero and also if its positive or negative. so easy to do positive-negative part, i just used the select VI. But i cant use the same VI to make the program determine if the number is positive or negative or zero because there are 3 cases. you are right i tried case structure but i have no idea where and how to enter conditions in case structure, like "if the number is greater than zero then execute"...anyway i know u dont understand nothing let me just upload what i did...i use Labview 8.5 by the way

Hi prober. I only have LV 8, but here is one way to do what you want. I am sure someone else will have a better way.

There's a primitive that does exactly what the poster is looking for...
