i was wondering how would you select a single or multiple letters/characters from a string type variable. for example: var name : string := "PETER" and i only want to display the second letter of this name, in this case, the E. is it possible? if not, wat is another solution? |

strings can be used like arrays in which every letter has a spot in the string. So to only call the second letter in the string use " name(2)" you can also look into the "index" function in the turing help files for other string manipulation technics. |
