Update Dynamic text based on the score in Animate Multiple choice quiz

Question

Hi, I'm an animate novice, playing around with a html5 Multiple Choice quiz. It all works well, but I'd like to change the message displayed on the final score page dependent on the value of the total score achieved - so if  the total score is 0/3 a message something like "oops- total fail" appears. If the total score is 1/3 then a different message is displayed, and different messages again for each of 2/3 & 3/3. I'm sure it's a really simple thing to do, but any help would be greatly appreciated I have a dynamic textbox called "scorecomment" ready for the message, with the following code for the scoring:var totalscore=3;
var thecoun=0;

this.totalscore.text=totalscore;
function scoreIt(){
thecount=thecount=1;
}

Hi.

You can use a switch statement or an if-else chain. Like this:

Switch statement:

var currentScore = 0; // set other values here

switch(currentScore)
{
	case 0:
		this.scorecomment.text = "You scored 0.";
		break;
	case 1:
		this.scorecomment.text = "You scored 1.";
		break;
	case 2:
		this.scorecomment.text = "You scored 2.";
		break;
	case 3:
		this.scorecomment.text = "You scored 3.";
		break;
}

Else-if chain:

var currentScore = 0; // set other values here

if (currentScore === 0)
{
	this.scorecomment.text = "You scored 0.";
}
else if (currentScore === 1)
{
	this.scorecomment.text = "You scored 1.";
}
else if (currentScore === 2)
{
	this.scorecomment.text = "You scored 2.";
}
else if (currentScore === 3)
{
	this.scorecomment.text = "You scored 3.";
}

I hope this helps.

Regards,

JC
