You need to post sample code.

In My latest program I Need tobe abble to add two numbers which apper in a
sequence together E.g "{1,6) = {16}" This probaly is very trivial but it
really needs to be done
--Derek Replies--------------
If you literally mean that your have a two-element sequence and you want to
convert it to a one-element sequence in the manner exampled above then ....
sequence x
x = {1,6}
x = { x[1]*10 + x[2] }
and in the general case of an arbitary sized sequence then...
atom r
r = 0
for i = 1 to length(x) do
r = (r*10) + x[i]
end for
x = {r}
hope this helps.

Hi Derek, this of course will only be valid with single-digit=
entries, you realise I guess

That all depends on what the specification is. Some examples might help
here...
So far we know that
{1,6} ==> {16}
must be true
but we are assuming
{23,17} ==> {247}
or this
{23, 17} = {2317}
That is why clear specifications are so important for programming.
