Hi Asuku,
To convert a value to a string, you should use $STR(val)
. This will use the currently defined FORMAT
keyword, so if you want to convert to an integer, double, or scientific notation, you will need to use the FORMAT
before $STR(val)
.
Likewise, if you want to convert a string to a numeric value, you can use either SVAL(str$)
or LVAL(str$)
(SVAL will use a period as a decimal separator while LVAL will use the locally defined character as the decimal separator).
