Consider this script:



documentclassreport
usepackageifthen
newcommandthesissizeSHORT
begindocument
setcounterpage
%3
ifthenelse
equalthesissizeSHORT
32

hey
enddocument


Compiling this script gives the error:



! Missing number, treated as zero.


I suspect that this is due to ifthenelse not being evaluated at the time of executing setcounter. How to solve?

          you can't use ifthenelse inside setcounter. Change the order:



          documentclassreport
          usepackageifthen
          newcommandthesissizeSHORT
          begindocument
          ifthenelseequalthesissizeSHORT
          setcounterpage3setcounterpage2


          hey
          enddocument


          Expandable tests are possible with expl3 and etoolbox. For both you should store the reference text in a command:



          documentclassreport
          usepackageexpl3,etoolbox
          newcommandthesissizeSHORT
          newcommandshortsizeSHORT
