            default: monthString = "Invalid month"; break;
        }

and the way to remember x and y is x = a cross

Yeah, I think so.

I kinda support.

But not as priority

That's fine.

SUPPORT. This would be useful in those 1-sprite-1-script games. 
OT: I'm going to the mall today. :3

Yeah,That's why I want it.

I like it.
Why do you write in colors like that?

Thanks.  Cuz I can and it's free. Well, actually, I just want to stand out on the forums.  Also, I like coding things with script.

I was going to code this block!

Ok.

Sorry, but I don't program Java.

I agree, Scratch needs a switch.

Have any comments?

Support? YAY!!!

Yay.

Sorry to restate this but yes the <[]and/or[]> boolean would do the same job.

This is a great block, it is not able to be done in scratch currently because even with a bunch of ifs and an if else, it will not work the same, for instance, if a variable changes in one of them, which would make another script run, it wont act the same. Also if they did end up making this, the plus and minus buttons may be able to go on other blocks like or and = - + * / etc.

Did you read it?

I don't really think so.  I'd like to see this block, because of a very annoying game that I am making.

a) It'll be a pain to add for the ST
b) It can be replicated easily

DON'T YOU SEE! YOU CANT REPLACE IT! ITS AS REPLACEABLE AS THE IF ELSE BOOLEAN! (Actually harder to replace.)

Both of hardmath123's points contridict each other.

Not really. The type of block you're looking for would require some new coding to match the block "extension" properties of those in BYOB - possible, but somewhat more difficult than just making a new blockspec. Still, I think this would be worth the time.

me too

It's for Scratch 2.0, not for BYOB.
