Increment a Char Variable

How do you increment a character variable?
Eg.
DATA: L_VAR1(3) TYPE C,
L_INC(3) TYPE C.
L_VAR1 = '080'
L_INC = '001'.
Then I need in a particular Loop run, L_VAR1 to vary from 080, 081, 082...120.
If I increment it with L_VAR1 = L_VAR1 + L_INC.
The next value stored is 81 and not 081.
Please provide Inputs in2 this.
Thanks

Hi..
Since u need a numeric value. Declare with Type N.
Eg:
DATA: L_VAR1(3) TYPE N,
L_INC(3) TYPE N.
L_VAR1 = '080'
L_INC = '001'.
Then:
L_VAR1 = L_VAR1 + L_INC. "This will work.

How to store serval char variables into a string variable?

I have serval char variables, but i don't know how to put them together (without using arrays). I am thinking to store these char variables into a string variable but i don't know how to do it. For example,
char letter1 = 'a', letter2 = 'b', letter3 = 'c';
String letters;
then how can i do to make letters = "abc" from using letter1,2,3?
I am just a beginner of Java, if anyone can help me, i will appreciate that very much!!!

String letters=""+leter1+letter2+letter3;is fine and dandy. What it actually compiles to is
String letters = new StringBuffer().append(letter1).append(letter2).append(letter3).toString();Which ofcourse is much more code to write, but still good to know.
So do see the API for java.lang.StringBuffer.

How to get a "char variable" with presentation variable???

I want to pass a char variable with presentation variable, I don't have problems if I pass "int".
For example in answers page I add a column that contains years of my dimension. 2000 until 2012 and prompted my presentation variable "year" (from my dashboard prompt) and when I go to dashboard if I choose in my prompt 2006 in my report appear 2006...any problem and easy. But my problem is if I would pass a char variable, in my prompt also I have months but not numbers else names: January, February, March...and a presentation variable that name is "month". If I do the same report but change column year to month (name) I don't have any results and I have an error.
How can I solucionate this???
Thank you!!

Alex,
Do you have separate columns for Year and Month Name. If Yes, Then why it is so confusing?
1. create a dashboard prompt with month name column
2. Assign it to monthname variable
3. In your report use above variable any where.., but what ever you are doing should be logical and valid to get some data.
In general above approach will work.
You said, "No! I don't want to do a filter with month! I would like to pass this variable, in this example don't make sense but I need to pass a char variable with presentation variable to do another things..."
what does that mean, what you are trying to do with the variable in your report. If you give a example that would be better.

How to convert DATE variable to CHAR variable

dear all,
How to convert DATE variable to CHAR variable
thanq

Depending on your final goal here are 2 options.
DATA: datein        TYPE d.
DATA: dateout(10)   TYPE c.
DATA: dateout2(8)   TYPE c.
datein = sy-datum.
WRITE datein TO dateout MM/DD/YYYY.
dateout2 = datein.
WRITE:/ datein, dateout, dateout2.
and the output

Incrementing an array variable!!!

Hello,
I wanna know if we can increment an array variable by more than 1.
When I use for(i=0;i<10;i+4) it is giving me an error.Just wanted to know if we can increment an array variable by any value other than 1.
Thanks

Your are right, I see that thank you

How to increment a character variable?

Hi,
I need to increment v_chgno by 1. But the following code gives me runtime error. Please can anyone guide me where i am going wrong.
Data: v_chgno TYPE char12 value 'CR0000000000',
          v_newchgno TYPE char12.
v_newchgno = v_chgno + 1.
Thanks in advance.
Sunanda.

Hi,
It is not possible to increment the value when charecters are included in it, else if the variable is numeric even though declared as charecters will support arithemetic operations.
Kindly refer the below code, it should work.
Sample Code
DATA: v_chgno TYPE char12 VALUE 'CR0000000000',
      v_chars TYPE char2,
      v_numeric_val TYPE char10,
      v_newchgno TYPE char12.
v_chars = v_chgno+0(2).
v_numeric_val = v_chgno+2(10).
v_numeric_val = v_numeric_val + 1.
SHIFT v_numeric_val RIGHT DELETING TRAILING space.
OVERLAY v_numeric_val WITH '0000000000'.
CONCATENATE v_chars v_numeric_val INTO v_newchgno.
WRITE / v_newchgno.
Pls do reward if useful.
Regards,
Farheen.

Cannot resolve symbol on char variable

my compiler stops at this line
char variablename = keyboardInputChar();
i am trying to input a character and declare a variable at the same time.
what am i doing wrong?
any help appreciated.

my compiler stops at this line
char variablename = keyboardInputChar();Well, variable 'variablename' can definitely be resolved, because your defining it there; I think your compiler can't find method 'keyboardInputChar()' anywhere. Have you defined that method in the same class?
kind regards

Parsing char-variables to String

Hello,
I 've got a little problem: I got three characters like 'a','b','c' and want to parse these characters in a String like str = "abc". How can I do so , or isn't this possible in general ?
Regards
Findus

or even more simple, even though this is not the
proper programming theory you should use... let's
pretend the chars are in an array called chars..It's not really any more simple than using a StringBuffer. Using StringBuffer and appending each characters is a lot more efficient than creating a new String object for each iteration. This is a lazy shortcut I used to use too, but it's not worth it :P

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

hi,
do like this
Do 10 Times.
concatenate 'TXT_FILE' SY-INDEX into TXT_FILE.

Evaluating a char variable which contains a Expression

Hi,
I am creating a function ,which has got three parametrers and it should return a numeric value.
I will write down the function
create function fun1(expr varchar,res1 number,res2 number)return number
begin
if expr then
return res1;
else
return res2;
end if;
end;
This is my logic, expr parameter can have any expressions,eg: CTC+basic+hra>5000
my function should evaluate this and return the respective values.
Anybody please help me out for this issue.If you have some other logic to implement the same please do replay.
Regards
Rupesh

Here's a function (It can cause too many hard parses, I don't know any other solution for 9i)
declare
  function fun1(
    expr  varchar2,
    res1  number,
    res2  number)
    return number
  is
    res  number;
  begin
    execute immediate 'select :res1 from dual where ' || expr ||
                      ' union select :res2 from dual where not ' || expr
                 into res
                using res1, res2;
    return res;
  end;

Incrementing and decrementing variable

Hi guys
I´m new in Labview Programming and I´m working with the NXT module in Labview 2010, and I have some problems, because I´m used to the C programming
and LabView is kind of diferent than C
The thing is wath I wanna make a speed regulator using the NXT brick
Using the left arrow button the speed will increase and using the right arrow button the speed will decrease
I´m usin the servomotor connected to the PORT A of the NXT brick,
Thanks
Diego
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I get this code working properly but I don´t know why sometimes when I press the Left Arrow Button of the NXT Brick, The screen shows "Speed of Motor : -1" and everything just Stop and don´t work again, I have to reset the NXT brick to get it working again.
What are the NXT terminal of each one of the NXT VI of Labview? I see each one of the Lego VI have a NXT input and a NXT output and How do I have to connect this NXT Terminals for my code?
Thank you for answer
Diego
