math Question.... how to do a check sum?

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

Hi Everybody:
I was trying to add some variables and check to see if they equal a 
value, and place that value into another variable.

ex
5 variables

5,7,10,78,70 = 170  then cut this number to a smaller one

like so
170 = 1 +7 +0  = 8 
the idea is to reduce the sum from the variables so they
are under 22

ex.

if total is 599  then
5+9+9 =23 is over 22 so reduce futher  2+3 = 5

Unless I have overlooked something.. I dont a see a way to split the 
variable so I can do this...without hard coding it.

I am familiar with basic and with basic you can cut the variable say
23  into 2 and 3 then add them.

does euphoria support this type of function?

Any assitance would be greatly appreciated

thanks
shep
