Objective-C: Comparing string with if() values doesnt work on [NSMutableArray objectatindex:]

objective-c xcode nsmutablearray

You can't compare strings with == and !=. Technically, that will just compare the pointers and not the values, which is what you want to do.

Instead you want something like:

if (! [yakitVal isEqualToString:@"LPG"]) {

objective-c xcode nsmutablearray

Try using

if (![yakitVal isEqualToString:@"LPG"]){...}

to compare the string values, not == or !=.

EDIT: Negated the conditional.

objective-c xcode nsmutablearray

Thank you guys for the answers, program is finally running as i wanted.

i also realized that my yakitval had a new line char at the end of it. so i've added this like to work

yakitVal = [yakitVal stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
