1. Strings into numbers... whee!
Heya all!
Okay, heres the deal: I want to turn hex {"F", "F"} into its absolute,
255. I asked my dad about this, however he knows more about this
than I do... in languages other than euphoria. I looked for this
"hex()" command he claimed Euphoria should do that BASIC does,
however I haven't found it.
So, how can I do this in Euphoria?
TIA,

Try the value() function in get.e:
include get.e
constant HEX_STRING="FF"
sequenced ret
ret = value("#" & HEX_STRING)
--Ret now contains {0,255} The first element of the sequence is an
--error code, 0 means GET_SUCCESS and the second is the value
? ret[2]
