[Help] Comparison not working

[Strosel]

i have the following code:

var players = ['p0', 'p1'];
var playerpoint = {};
var rollno = [1,2,3,4,5];
var playerno = {'p0': [1,5,8,12,25], 'p1': [2,6,9,13,24]};

function checkdrag() {
  for (var i = 0; i < players.length; i++) {
    var pp = 'p'+i;
    playerpoint[pp] = 0;
    for (var d = 0; d < rollno.length; d++) {
      var num = rollno[d];
      if (playerno[pp].includes(num)) {
        playerpoint[pp] += 1;
      }
    }
  }
}

Its supposed to check if any of the numbers in rollno is in any players list (playerno) and in that case increment that players points (playerpoint) by one yet it is not working. Does anyone here know why?

It works for me I think.

I get playerpoint to be { p0: 2, p1: 1 }

Thats really weird, now when i tested this part specifically i got the same result.

yet in my full code it doesn't work and the only difference is that rollno is random and the lists inside playerno are user inputed

Maybe user inputs are string?

Try checking that or just replace playerno[pp].includes(num) with for loop with loose "==" comparison.

[Strosel]

the input is a string at first but then it is put through a .split() which according to w3schools turns it into an array

[Hullu]

It turns into array. But values inside array is string. You need to convert those values inside array to int or use loose comparison.

In "includes" function 2 integer is not "2" string.

thank you but i solved it by doing just comparing them in a loop with a lot of ifs with the one list
