You're welcome.

Alan is completely right - it's only simple logic. The key is to
work out exactly what you want to do, then think the logic for
that, then program it. Which is why we find it hard when people
post questions with very unclear requirements as we're all stuck
at the first step.

Hopefully you've got the basics that you can extend.

Building up from small components can help. It's harder for me;
I've been programming for over 25 years so this stuff just makes
sense. I can see it's not so easy when you're starting from
scratch. But without a policy configuration language FreeRADIUS
would be much less powerful.

Have a read of the unlang documentation, but really
"if/elsif/else" are all you need for the vast majority of things.
Though switch/case/default can be very useful in a few cases.
