ParseToNumber Command

ParseToNumber( <Number>, <String> )

Parses the string and stores the result to a number a, which must be defined and free before the command is used.

Example: Define a = 3 and text1 = "6". ParseToNumber(a, text1) returns a = 6.

Notes:

• This is a scripting command which only sets the value of a number once. To convert a text text1 into a number which is updated dynamically, use FromBase(text1,10).
• See also ParseToFunction command.
