Converting int to string

[TuringDan]

I want to convert an int variable into a string in order to display it using Draw.Text instead of put (to avoid the nasty background).

the int variable is health, it is constantly changing, and I want to display the number on my health bar.

Any help would be much appreciated.

also, this is my first post on these boards.

It's been a while since I've done Turing, but it goes something like this:

code:

Draw.Text("Health: " + intstr(health), x, y, colour)

That worked! thanks a million.

No problem, and welcome to CompSci.ca, enjoy your stay!

Good to be here. I did a bit of turing in grade 9 and did not start again until this year (Im in grade 11)

I'm just teaching myself right now, and preparing for the grade 12 comp. info sciences course. I would have taken it this year but mandatory credits got in the way.

The code I wrote with your advice looks like this:

code:

Draw.Text (intstr(health)+" /160", 175, 321, font1, black) Draw.Text (intstr(enemy1)+" /160", 505, 321, font1, black) Draw.Text (intstr(enemy1mana)+" /160", 505, 306, font1, black)

looks good, but look up arrays in the Turing Walkthrough
