Intstr/strint and other

[Flikerator]

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.

code:

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.

code:

var word : string := "123772183" var num:int if strintok(word) then   num:=string(word) end if

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

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

ERROR

Compile time expression expected

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

code:

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;

Quote:

var word : string := "5"

How do I make that an int?

[person]

code:

var something:int something:=strint (word)

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

code:

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

srry it was a typo, i put string instead of strint

code:

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

Alright thanks. I wish I asked this yesterday, but oh well. Thanks again ^^;
