Sample Code

This example attempts to find element(s) that the monster being fought right now is weak against.

boolean [element] weak_elements;

switch (monster_element())
{
   case $element[cold]:   weak_elements = $elements[spooky, hot];    break;
   case $element[spooky]: weak_elements = $elements[hot, stench];    break;
   case $element[hot]:    weak_elements = $elements[stench, sleaze]; break;
   case $element[stench]: weak_elements = $elements[sleaze, cold];   break;
   case $element[sleaze]: weak_elements = $elements[cold, spooky];   break;
}
