Changing variables to strings

[KilideoCapit]

hey, i need to take the variable "c" and make it "c$". is there a way to do that?

c$ = str$(c)

When you use the STR$() command Qbasic automaticaly puts a space before (and after?) the number so, unless you want the space, use c$ = RTRIM$(LTRIM$(STR$(c)))

If a man says something in the forest and no woman hears it is he still wrong?

Hi

Just a FYI

The space as qbasicking describes is reserved for the sign of the number. A space if it is positive or a "-" if it is negative. There is no space after the number.

Thanks for clearing that up, I didn't think that there was a space after, but it was late I didn't feel like checking it.

So then all you need is c$ = LTRIM$(STR$(c))

If a man says something in the forest and no woman hears it is he still wrong?
