hey, im reading some numbers form a text file and i cant seem to convert them into string, this is what i have. any help would be awesome! Thanks

Turing:


var levels : int
var brick_x_1, brick_x_2, brick_y_1, brick_y_2 : string (3)
var brick_colour : flexible array 1 .. 0 of string (2)
var position_brick_x_1 : int := 81
var position_brick_x_2 : int := 88
var position_brick_y_2 : int := 94
var position_brick_y_1 : int := 103
var position_brick_colour : int := 112


open : levels, "Levels.txt", seek, read

seek : levels, position_brick_x_1
read : levels, brick_x_1

seek : levels, position_brick_x_2
read : levels, brick_x_2

seek : levels, position_brick_y_1
read : levels, brick_y_1

seek : levels, position_brick_y_2
read : levels, brick_y_2

seek : levels, position_brick_colour
read : levels, brick_colour

close : levels

brick_x_1 := strint (brick_x_1)
brick_x_2 := strint (brick_x_2)
brick_y_1 := strint (brick_y_1)
brick_y_2 := strint (brick_y_2)
brick_colour := strint (brick_colour)

drawfillbox (brick_x_1, brick_y_1, brick_x_2, brick_y_2, brick_colour)

Try using strintok (brick_x_1) to see if it can be turned into an int. I think that you are reading a space or a non-integer.

I figured it out why its not working, its because the limit i set after the string does not seem to work so it reads more.
But now i need to figure out why the read function doesnt use the limit set by the string variable. can anyone help explain this?

It doesn't matter what you put them into the test file when you open it to get you can simply get as strings

i know, ive gotten them as strings, i now need to get it to an integer, but the variable, even though it is limited string of 3 characters, still has more than 3 characters including spaces which i cant seem to explain.

Why don't you just read everything into one big string and then split it into multiple strings after?

If your string(3) types have more than 3 characters in them, then it's probably a Turing bug. Try using:

Turing:
read levels : brick_x : 3


to limit input to 3 bytes == 3 characters.
