The STR$ function returns the STRING representation of a numerical value.
Syntax
- result$ = STR$(number)
Parameters
- number is any numerical type value to convert.
Description
- Returns any type number value with leading sign(space/minus) or decimal point when one exists in the numerical value.
- If number is positive, the STRING value returned will have a leading space character which can be removed using LTRIM$.
- If number is negative, the minus sign will precede the number instead of a space which LTRIM$ will not remove.
- Trimming a STR$ string number using RTRIM$ is not required as PRINT creates the undocumented trailing number space.
Examples
PRINT STR$( 1.0 ) PRINT STR$( 2.3 ) PRINT STR$( -4.5 )
1 2.3 -4.5
a = 33 PRINT STR$(a) + "10" + "1" + "who" + STR$(a) + STR$(a) + LTRIM$(STR$(a))
33101who 33 3333
