hi

enter a data, evaluate it what could be simpler and well with thunkable I can’t do it:  
I have a list with numbers and I compare the entry with this list if it belongs I continue if it does not belong I display an error message and as you can imagine my app always displays the message error is infuriating

You should know by now to show your relevant blocks etc.

EDIT: The blocks have now been added to the first post.

You’re comparing a string to a integer. It would be nice to be able to set the input’s output explicitly. For now we can only set the input keyboard style.

Can you check if your `list contains [input + 0]`
