Label1.text + Label2.text = Mess

Question

Hello!
Im sorry im troubling you with this (i guess) simple problem.
My problem i simple. I want to add two numbers stored in two
different label components.
Ex:
Label1.text = 1;
Label2.text = 1;
Label3.text = Label1.text + Label2.text;
The result is that Label3.text becomes 11, but i want it to
become 2! How do i make it add the to numbers instead of just
adding two strings to each other.

Answer 1

I think it has been more often when I was reading css, xml,
or other external files, but it could also have been some kind of
white space or special key at the end. In any event I just find it
easier to always use parseInt/Float and not have to worry about it
working.
I've never tested it for any kind of speed hit for anything
that required a lot of operations, so there might be a savings
there, but these types of things are usually fairly low performance
in any event.
So for typing four more characters I feel I get a benefit.
Plus you can use the second argument and convert to other bases if
you need to!
