Intstr/strint and other

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

Alright I competed today and if I know how to intstr and strint then We would have come ontop. Instead we had to do a lot of other stuff and it wasted time...

So I need a good explaination of how to turn a string into an int and vice versa. Example of what we had;

You get a string from some data on a disk. It has to then be turned into an integer for our math calculation. We got it right but it took a lot longer. 

var word : string := "123772183"

for i : 1 .. length (word)
    word (i .. i) %needs this to be turned into an int
end for

Thats a bad example because it was only one number we needed and here its asking for each letter at a time. I just need to know how to take a string and make it into an integer value.

var word : string := "123772183"
var num:int

if strintok(word) then
  num:=string(word)
end if

if strintok(word) then 
  num:=string(word) 
end if
ERROR

Compile time expression expected

You didnt explain what you did, that doesnt help ><

var word : string := "123772183" 

for i : 1 .. length (word) 
    strint (word (i)) %needs this to be turned into an int 
end for


btw : not sure wat "i..i" means

Well if i is 1 then,

letter in place 1-1 will be shown. If its 3 then letter 3-3 will be shown.

var word : string := "1237721830"

put word %Shows you the word
put ""   %Adds a space
for i : 1 .. length (word)
    put word (i .. i) ..   %Lets the next put go beside it
    put word (i)           %Another way to do it
end for
put ""
break

for i : 1 .. length (word) - 1 by 2  %Goes up 2
    put word (i .. i + 1)            %Puts the current number to the current number+1
end for

No it didn't help.

Ill make it a bit simpler, I can do the difficult stuff after I learn it.

If I had;

var word : string := "5"

How do I make that an int?

var something:int
something:=strint (word) 


or if ur not sure if word can be turned to int u can do


var something :int
if strintok (word) then
        something:=strint (word)
end if

srry it was a typo, i put string instead of strint
var word : string := "123772183" %declaring the string that will become and int
var num:int %variable to take int

if strintok(word) then %if the string is ok to turn into int (all integers)
  num:=strint(word) %string->integer and stored into var
end if

put word %put each word to compare, both the same
put num %but one is accually in int variable
