charAt for Turing

[xtreemboarder]

is there a function that can get a single character from a word or phrase... like you give it a number which represents the address (sort of) and it just returns the character... i know theres such a thing in Java which is called charAt... and its a great little tool.

so for example... in Java I would write something like this

String word = "canada";
char ch = word.charAt (3);
c.print (ch);

note that in Java, the first character starts with 0.

btw i forgot to mention that that example will return "a".

c a n a d a
0 1 2 3 4 5

check the Turing Walkthrough's string manipulation tutorial, but basically

Turing:

var word:string:= "Canada" put word(4)

this will output the letter "a"
