Error Proofing Arrays

[lucklesslily]

What is it you are trying to achieve?
I'm in the midst of error proofing my program, and at the moment I need to make sure that people enter the right type of input into my arrays. (real)


What is the problem you are having?
I have no idea how to do that.


Describe what you have tried to solve this problem
I tried using strintok/strint but it didn't work.

Post any relevant code
for itemCount : 1..numBooks
put "Enter a title:"
get arritemDescrip (itemCount) :*
cls
put "Enter number of copies you would like to recieve of ",arritemDescrip(itemCount),":"
get arritemQuantity(itemCount)
cls
put "Enter price of an individual copy of ",arritemDescrip(itemCount),":"
get arritemPrices(itemCount)
arrtotalPrice(itemCount) := arritemQuantity(itemCount) * arritemPrices(itemCount)
cls
end for


Please specify what version of Turing you are using
Turing 4.1.1

Have you learned about conditional statements?

[lucklesslily]

No I haven't

A conditional statement is the same as an if statement. I'm sure if you're working with arrays then you've probably learned ifs by now.

strint/strintok are for converting strings to integers. To convert to real use strreal/strrealok.
