I'm making this project where if there's a certain word in your answer to a question in one of those sensing

 ask []

ask blocks, then it's added to a list. I'm trying lots of things, but it won't work! Help will be greatly appreciated! big_smile

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but I think what you need is a script that adds your answer to a list only if it is a certain answer. Is this right?

That's the idea. The only thing is what I'm thinking is if there's certain words within your answer, than it adds it to a list, for example:

When gf Clicked
Forever
If (Answer) contains "run" // but your answer could be something like "JimBob likes to run." 
Add [run] to [thing v] 
end

Thanks!

Well, try this:

set [adder v] to [] //Blank.
set [loopcounter v] to [1]
ask [YourQuestion] and wait
repeat (length of (answer))
 if <(letter (loopcounter) of (answer)) = [ ]> //A space.
  add (adder) to [words v]
  set [adder v] to [] //Blank.
 else
  set [adder v] to (join (adder) (letter (loopcounter) of (answer)))
 end
 change [loopcounter v] by (1)
end
if <[words v] contains [YourWord]>
 add (answer) to [YourList v]
end

sad I tried that - it didn't work. I surrounded it with a forever block and then inside of it a "if" block, and finally inside those scripts. The if I put was accurate - did I do something wrong? Thanks!

Ah, yes. It doesn't work.

Here is a version of it that does:

delete (all v) of [words]
set [adder v] to [] //Blank.
set [loopcounter v] to [1]
ask [YourQuestion] and wait
repeat (length of (answer))
 if <(letter (loopcounter) of (answer)) = [ ]> //A space.
  add (adder) to [words v]
  set [adder v] to [] //Blank.
 else
  set [adder v] to (join (adder) (letter (loopcounter) of (answer)))
 end
 change [loopcounter v] by (1)
end
add (adder) to [words v]
set [adder v] to [] //Blank.
if <[words v] contains [YourWord]>
 add (answer) to [YourList v]
end
