use strreal (or streal?)

eg
code:

var var1:int
var1:=round(thestrreal(thestringvar)*1.07)

the strreal changes str to real, then multiplies by 1.07, and then is rounded off so it can be an int. if you dont want int, just real, make var1 a real var and get rid of round()

Suppose that you have something like this:


code:
var s : string := "43"
var n : int

n := strint (s)


strint converts a string to an integer. Take this case however:
code:
var s : string := "hello"
var n : int
n := strint (s)


This program would crash, because s can't be converted into an integer. To check to see if a variable can be converted to an integer, use strintok(string). If it can be converted, it will return true, if it can't, it will return false.

code:
var s : string
var n : int
put "Enter a number: "..
get s
if strintok (s) = true then
n := strint (s)
put "Two times your number is "..
put 2*n
elsif strintok (s) = false then
put "You didn't enter a number."
end if

darknesses code works fine for me. what version of Turing are you using? I'm on 4.0.5.

also are you using the last section of code that darkness posted? if so, post your code and we can have a looksie. Smile

i am using 4.0.4c
this is my code
code:

var line : string
var streamIn : int
var price : string
var cost : real

open : streamIn, "iii.txt", get
assert streamIn > 0

put "ITEMS      " ..
put "COST"
put "---------------"
locate(3,1)
for i : 1 .. 2
    get : streamIn, line, price : *
    cost := strint (price)
    put line, "   ", price
end for


get : streamIn, line, price : *
    put line, "     ", price
get : streamIn, line, price : *
    put line, "    ", price



this is the iii.txt
code:

sweater 45.99
t-shirt 25.99
dress 80.99
shoes 102.00
