Well, I'm real new at using Euphoria, still evalulating it actually, and
constantly have to resort to the help files. Anyway, I have a problem
that I haven't found a solution to.
I recently decided to translate a BASIC program that I was using to make
randomized modifications to one of my Windows ini files. The problem is
that I need to create a random number, and turn it into a string. For
example, one line of the ini file that needs changed is:
Close=15
Actually, the 15 is speculative. What the program needs to do is pick a
random number between 1 and 19, and put it in place of the 15. If it
picks 12, then the output is:
Close=12
This is a fairly simple procedure in BASIC, because you can use the
STR$() command to convert a number into a string, but I haven't found a
way to do it in Euphoria. It's probably really obvious, and I'm just
missing it, but I'd appreciate the help.
Thanks.
