Method Detail

choice

<static> function choice(message, trueString, falseString)

Reads in a boolean input.
The Strings representing the two possible options as well as a message for the user can be specified. For example the call of

choice("Start Simulation?", "yes", "no");

would result in prompting

Start Simulation?([y]es/[n]o)

on the console. If 'y' or 'Y' would be entered choice would return true and false if 'n' or 'N' would be entered.
If using GPSC with a GUI, a call of choice opens a message box containing the passed message and two buttons with the labels "yes" and "no".

Parameters:
message - The message to be displayed when asking the user for his choice
trueString - The String representing the true option

true if the user chooses the option represented by trueString, false otherwise
