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
