array -> string

[Selfi]

im trying to turn an array into a string, heres what i have so far, i just dont know how to put it into a string. in the program im coding i get the word from a file, which is why i have a get there. this is NOT the program that i am coding, i just need some help with an example, thanks.

code:

% this program inputs individual letters from a word into an array, then % puts them back into a string var word, neW : string get word % gets the word var letter : array 1 ..length(word) of string %variable to store letters for i : 1 .. length (word)     letter (i) := word (i) %assigning each value to the letter position end for for i : 1 .. length (word)     put letter (i) .. %displaying on screen end for put neW % displays our recreated string

i assume that you are trying to put each indivisual letter in an array back into a whole word?

code:

var word, newword:string get word var letter:array 1..length (word) of string for i:1..length (word) letter (i):=word(i) end for for decreasing i:length (word)..1 newword+=newword+letter(i) end for put newword

this program will put word into an array and reverse the order they are in when they are put into newword. although you can do it another way.

thats the problem see, is that you need to declare the newword first to add to it, which is my dilemma

and your way prints them back in reverse lol

this'll do it

code:

% this program inputs individual letters from a word into an array, then % puts them back into a string var word, newword : string :="" get word % gets the word var letter : array 1 ..length(word) of string %variable to store letters for i : 1 .. length (word)     letter (i) := word (i) %assigning each value to the letter position end for put " " for i : 1 .. length (word)     newword:=newword+letter(i) end for put newword % displays our recreated string

of course, for efficiency reasons, you could put both in the same loop
and assign newword as

newword += word (i)
letter (i) := word (i)
