Apple

I would expect that when I run the script below that do_that would recursively call itself until a true was returned and then "I escaped" would be displayed. What repeatedly happens is two false's are returned and then the "I escaped" dialog is displayed even though true has not been return.

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks,

Michael

on do_this()

if not do_that() then do_that()

display dialog "I escaped"

end do_this

on do_that()

set a_list to {false, false, false, false, false, false, false, false, false, true}

set a_random_number to (random number from 1 to 10)

display dialog (a_random_number as string) & " " & item a_random_number of a_list

return item a_random_number of a_list

end do_that
