strint <-> intsr help

-----------------------------------

I'm having trouble with converting the numbers from integers to string even though I'm doing it the way the reference said it should be done. 


var num : int
var fnum : string

get num
for i : 1 .. num - 1
    num := num * i
end for
intstr (num) := fnum
put fnum



I don't understand where exactly my error is or what I'm doing wrong. Can someone please help me out?  :?: btw my program is just a figuring out the factorial powers of whole numbers from 1..user input in case anybody was wondering. [/code]

Re: strint <-> intsr help

-----------------------------------

your problem is right here:

intstr (num) := fnum


with that line you are trying to assign assign a string to a string that holds a number (whatever number num ends up being at the time).

intstr converts an integer to a string
strint converts a string to an integer (you might want to use the strintok function first)

what i think you want is

num := strint (fnum)


of course that doesn't make any sense, especially considering fnum isn't defined. so maybe what i think you meant was

fnum := intstr (num)

would it even matter?

Mazer will probably come up with Evasive Manuever II, and we'll all end up refilling ammo for his bit-gun anyways :lol:
