does anyone know how to get strint to work? I can't seem to get my inputed number to convert into a number to compare with a sum of 2 random numbers Sad . any help would be greatly appreciated.

Turing:

put strint ("1") + 1

or just have user input the number directly
Turing:

var num : int
get num
put num + 1

then there's no need for strint()

Like so:

code:
var s : string
var i : int

get s % ie s = "12345"
i := strint(s)

I suggest that you also pay a little attention to the "strintok" command. Useful for errortraping later.

yeah you could go:
code:
var input : string
var interger : int
loop
    put "Enter a number: " ..
    get input
    exit when strintok (input)
end loop
interger := strint (input)

Even better if you give the user some feedback on incorrect input.

code:
loop
    put "Enter a number: " ..
    get input
    exit when strintok (input)
    put "How about an actual number this time, wiseguy."
end loop

If it helps so see the control flow a bit more clearly.

code:
loop
    put "Enter a number: " ..
    get input
 
    if strintok (input) then
        exit
    else
        put "How about an actual number this time, wiseguy."
    end if
end loop
