b = "44"
Now you shouldn't think that b = a, cause they are different types.
To get the value 44 back out of variable b, you can do this:

-- example.ex
include get.e
object c
c = value(b)
if c[1] = GET_SUCCESS then
    c = c[2]
end if
-- end of example.ex

You see, c is an object, that means it can become any type you want it.
So if you're unsure which type a variable is or can become, declare it as an
object.

integer a
sequence b
a = 44
b = sprintf("%d",a)

sprintf is just like printf, except it returns what printf would print
to the screen or file.

Being that i am in the "can't figure out which print to use" pavilion, i use
sprint(), so..

include misc.e
integer a
sequence b
a = 44
b = sprint(a)
