How do I use math inside of a variable set function?

not sure how to go about typing this:

(GlobalNumberN - CountIDLimitMax) > 0 ? (GlobalNumberN + CountIDLimitMax) > CountIDLimitMax ? CountIDLimitMax + GlobalNumberN[/code:2e86wj3m]

giving me some error about expecting a " : " for comparison or something. I had made a Min and Max value but I wanted to see if I could do it without having to declare a Min variable (which is easy and works).

The ? character is the beginning of a conditional operator. It's an if, then statement. It is used like this:

condition ? result if condition is true : result if condition is false

Your statement says:

IF (GlobalNumberN - CountIDLimitMax) > 0 then

IF (GlobalNumberN + CountIDLimitMax) > CountIDLimitMax then

CountIDLimitMax + GlobalNumberN

but it is missing bolth ELSE statements which are started by the : symbol.

What exactly are you trying to do with this statement?
