How can i make that when i ask a user to enter a number( such as a deposit for a bank) there won't be an error if they enter a word.

Obviously one could make it s string but the problem is i need to be able to use adding, subtracting, etc on these inputs (basically, how can i trun a string into an integer?).

Thanks a lot for your help, Ted.

ted, i think all u hafta do is like put in or int ( dun't remember which one it is) after the variable name. It is the same as turning a int into a string, u add str to the end of it. U could verify with someone else, but i think that's it

you take input as String, then use

strint("text") to convert string to integer value.

such as

strint("10") returns integer value of 10
