If I have a case, and I want it to do something if it doesn't run into the integers I gave it, how do I catch everything else?

Have an else statement after the cases. It will be executed if the value doesn't meet any of the cases.

mmk, like such?

case findLocation(0) of
0: begin
Lave;
wait(25000 + random(5000));
end;
1: begin
inventory;
end;
else: begin
functionOrWhatNotHere();
end;
end;



would that work? or did I misunderstand the syntax?

Basically:

procedure Something;
begin
  case something of
  //case stuff
  end else //The stuff to do if it doesn't solve the case
end;

end;

It should be encased within the case statement.

  1:
    inventory;     //begin and end not needed if it's single statement

  else     // ':' is not required after 'else', 'then' etc in Pascal (needed in some other languages such as Python though)
    functionOrWhatNotHere();
end;

Should work fine there

Would result in an syntax error.
You can think case statements as multiple statements of 'else if',

procedure Something;
begin
  case something of
  //case stuff
  end else //The stuff to do if it doesn't solve the case
end;

Hence the 'end else' here would be like directed at the 'case something of' instead of those 'else if' statements within the case construct ;)

Hmmmm didn't think of it that way ;)
