Conversion of a string to a number

Hi there,
I have a problem sending a String as a number..
I have a text field called score0 :-
var score = score0.text;
The string (score0.text) will have an "s" at the end as the time is counted in seconds and tenths, so I will be receiving something along the lines of "8.1s" as a value..
I would like to take score0.text, remove the "s" then *1000 the amount as a number before use..
Is this possible ? Thanks for any help in advance..

You are welcome.

Not able to convert string attribute to number and date please help me out

not able to convert string attribute to number and date attribute. While using string to date conversion it shows result as failure.As I am reading from a text file. please help me out

Hi,
You need to provide an example value that's failing and the date formats in the reference data you're using. It's more than likely you don't have the correct format in your ref data.

Crystal 2011 linking table with a String and a Number

Hello,
I am able to retrieve the data I want with the following SQL Query in SQL: If I try to create it in Crystal 2011 APPLRUNN is a string and CNTBTCH is a number. Is there a way I can link these two fields if one is a string and the other is a number ?
SELECT
ENADV.APPLRUNN, ENPBD.CNTBTCH,
ENPBD.DOCNBR
FROM
ENADV INNER JOIN
ENPBD ON ENADV.APPLRUNN = ENPBD.CNTBTCH
Thanks,
Debbie

Hi Debbie,
You cannot linking table with a string and a number. I have given a example query:
SELECT
ENADV.APPLRUNN, ENPBD.CNTBTCH,
ENPBD.DOCNBR
FROM
ENADV INNER JOIN
ENPBD ON
ENADV.APPLRUNN = ENPBD.APPLRUNN or ENADV.CNTBTCH = ENPBD.CNTBTCH
I modify last sentense because one table primary key is equal to another table Foreign key i.e
one table ID field = another table ID field or one table NAME field = another table Name field.
Please understand my intenction and check linking fields in tables.
Thanks,
DJ

UCCX: unable to convert string into a number

Hi all,
I used the Get Digit String to pull a 4 digital numbers (stored as variable sYear) from a caller, this number is obviously stored as a string. Then i used 'set iYear=sYear' to conver this string to an integer.
I debuged the script, when I entered number of year without following #, it worked fine. If I entered number of year and followed by #, i got the message 'unable to conver string into a number'. Can someone help me with that?
Thanks a lot.

Hi Reena,
The UCCX version is 10.5.1.
I found the problem. It works after i changed input length to 5. 'The terminating key overrides the Maximum Input Length to terminate input'.
Thanks.

Little help with EL: concat static string and databound number

Hi OTN,
I'm a bit stuck with a simple - as I thought - case: concatenating static string and databound number in EL:
I have a deffered expression like:
#{1 != 2 ? ('Number is ' bindings.SomeNumber.inputValue) : 'no number'}
1 and 2 are databound values too but the question is about showing "Number is 5" where 5 is a SomeNumber.
Expression editor shows error on 'Number is'. And the error dissapperars if I remove "bindings.SomeNumber.inputValue".
How can I concatenate them?
Thanks.

Another option for you is to write that formatting logic in a static utility classes that takes parameters to return strings.
Ex.:
*/WEB-INF/utils.tld:*
<taglib xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-jsptaglibrary_2_1.xsd" version="2.1" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee">
<description>utils</description>
<display-name>utils</display-name>
<tlib-version>1.0</tlib-version>
<short-name>utils</short-name>
<uri>http://biz.com/utils</uri>
<function>
     <name>getFormattedNumber</name>
     <function-class>com.mybiz.FormatUtils</function-class>
     <function-signature>java.lang.String getFormattedNumber(oracle.jbo.domain.Number)</function-signature>
</function>
</taglib>And then you use them in your EL expression like this:
page.jspx:_
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
          xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/rich"
          xmlns:utils="http://biz.com/utils">
<af:outputText value="#{utils:getFormattedNumber(bindings.Number.inputValue)}"/>
</jsp:root>Better to have many options isn't it?

Converting a binary string to a number...

Hi guys,
I'm trying to convert a binary string into a decimal integer. I'm not sure if LabVIEW has a VI that does that. I haven't found one yet. Basically, say I have the string '0101'. I want to convert that to the value '5'. Or say I'm using hex, I want '10101111' to be converted to 'AF'. So that's my dilemma. I'm hoping I'm not going to have to make my own VI. Thanks a lot!
-Mike

LabVIEW has exactly what you want even if it can be hard to find it.
To convert a binary text string like "0101" to a decimal value can easily be done using the Scan Value function found under the String/Number conversion section. If you provide the format %b to it (not mentioned in the manual) you will get the decimal value of your binary string.
Also, on your front panel you can change the format of your numerical indicators by right clicking on it and selecting Format & Precision. If you have a numerical indicator you can set it do display the numbers in e.g. hexadecimal form.
However, if you want to convert a number to a hexadecimal text string you can use the Number to Hexadecimal String function also found under the String/Number conversion section.
I
attached a simple example, Conversions.vi, that shows how it works. I hope this helps. /Mikael

Convert double precision float string to a number

I am a newbie with Labview.
I have a GPIB link with a vector voltmeter and I receive the data as a double precision float string (IEEE standard 754-1985). I would like it to be recognized as a number, but I can't find the proper conversion function. The string to convert is 8 byte long. Does anyone have an idea how to do it? Thank you!

Asumming your data is big-endian, you should be able to simply typecast it to a DBL (see attache LV 7.0 example).
(It is possible that your DBL string is little-endian, in this case it will be slightly more complicated. Let us know )Message Edited by altenbach on 05-27-2005 04:49 PM

Conversion: engineering string to fractional string

Hello everyone
I am loading a text file with several columns that has text (informations about the file and column titles) and values in engineering format. After I load this file I use "spreadsheet string to array" to convert it to 2D array of strings.
I would like to leave all the "text" (informations about the file and column titles) unchanged, but I want all the "engineering values" to be converted to "fractional values". How do I convert an engineering string to a fractional string?
I will have to convert the whole file at once because different files have different positions for text and engineering values and because of that would be impossible to know the index of values and convert just them.
Thanks.
Dan07
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Dan,
conversion is done like that:
But you have to select, what is text and what is number, on your own. How should LabVIEW know about your file format?

Conversion of binary string into headecimal

Ho will i convert binary string into hexadecimal fromat

HI,
Thanks but the above module is not present my system.
I have number which needs to be converted into binary first and then into Hex.
I have written it code for conversion of decimal number into Binary.But i am not able to convert it into Hex.
My rough code is ....
types : begin of t_temp,
        r1 type i,
        end of t_temp.
data : ty_temp type standard table of t_temp ,
       wa_temp type t_temp.
DATA : num TYPE i,
       temp1 TYPE string,
       temp2 TYPE string,
       temp3 TYPE string,
       temp4 TYPE x.
temp1 = 0.
temp2 = ''.
num = 64.
while num ne 1.
temp1 = num MOD 2.
num = num / 2.
If temp1 = 1.
    num = num - 1.
endif.
concatenate temp1 temp2 into temp2 .
endwhile.
temp1 = 1.
concatenate temp1 temp2 into temp2 .
condense temp2 no-gaps .
WRITE : temp2 .

Incompatable types:java.lang.String and phone number[]

i am trying to run a search of an array but i can not get the Class to compile.
The code is below:
public class People
private int numberSize;
private PhoneNumber[] number;
public People(int maxNumberSize)
number = new PhoneNumber[maxNumberSize];
numberSize = 0;
public void addAPerson(String personName, String Number)
PhoneNumber thePerson = new PhoneNumber (personName, Number);
number[numberSize] = thePerson;
numberSize++;
private String findPhoneNumber(String person)
int location = -1;
for (int i=0; i<numberSize; i++)
if (number.getNumber() == number)
location = i ;

Hi.
you're using
private String findPhoneNumber(String person)
int location = -1;
for (int i=0; i<numberSize; i++)
if (number.getNumber() == number)
location = i ;
}Now - your method gets a name of a person, right?
And you want to find that person's object in the array, and retrieve the phone number.
Your first problem lies in -
if (number.getNumber()==number)Can you see the problem? number is an array. You want to check the data of the object in the array's location i, but you're not doing it. So, first, you would change it to read
if (number.getNumber()==number)
Now - what are we doing here? You are getting the number of the person in place i in the array, by using the getNumber() method. Then you check if it equals to number.
It won't be, because number is the array itself. And anyway - you are doing it the other way around, because you want to check if the object in place i in the array has the name that you got previously.
So, you're looking at something like
if (number.getName()==person)
(person is the argument you got on calling the method, remember?)
ok.
Now you can go on with the rest.

Conversion from a string to date type

I am trying for a servlet application , for which the requirement is as under :

Converting string to float number

Here's what I'm trying to do. The user types a number, such as 12.011, in an input box. I want to check to see if the number they typed is between two numbers, such as 12 and 12.1. Therefore, I want to convert the string in the input box to a float number, not an integer, so I can check to see if it's in the correct range. How do I convert a string into a float number?
thanks
Mark

Did you try:
Number(textinput1.text);
if(Number(textinput1.text)>12 && Number(textinput1.text)<12.1)

Are you sure Field1, Field2, Field4 and Field5 contain a number information in all rows?
If there is a non numeric String in your Field<x> columns in any row the error will occor.
