Getting Functions To Work?

[groog]

I'm having trouble getting custom functions made. Here is an example function-



function findGTM(mon:Array of String);
begin
k := GetArrayLength(mon) - 1;
k := k/3;

if(findColor(x, y, strToInt(mon[0]), xs, ys, xe, ye))then
begin

...Some stuff

while(found)do
begin

....More stuff

if(i = k)then
begin
return true;
end;

...xxx

end else
begin
return false;
end;
end;
end;
end;


I obviously need it to return the value "true" or "false". But I get this error message-


[Error] (13:38): colon (':') expected at line 12
Compiling failed.

Being the first line-


function findGTM(mon:Array of String);

So what can I do to get my function working? Works A-OK as a procedure (without the returning bit of course).

function findGTM(mon: TStringArray): Boolean;

TStringArray is Array of String.

Also, s/return/Result/.

Also, s/return/Result/.

Yeah that too.

Result := True;
or
Result := False;

I found the problem. While I used your advice I also needed to tell the function I was returning a boolean:


function findGTM(mon:TStringArray):boolean;

I said that in my first post to this thread.

Damnit! I didn't look at the code bit; I assumed it was a quote. Thanks though.
