How to input numbers

[hessu]

I want to write a simpel mathematic program. But I don't know how to Input numbers.
open console()
a$=input()
b$=input()
a=Val(a$)
b=Val(b$)

if I input a$ as 1.5 and b$ as 2

debug a *b

aswer will be 2

min question is : How I can input numeric values

I've programmed in Liberty Basic and no problem with this

Hello Hessu, and welcome in the amazing word of PB

Because when you use float number you must convert to float too

Code: Select all

OpenConsole()
a$=Input()
b$=Input()
a.f=ValF(a$)
b.f=ValF(b$)
Debug a*b

Furthermore, when you put code, it's better to use

Code: Select all

Use ValF() or ValD() instead of Val()
Val() is used for integers or Quads only

Thank you very much

For one time, the question is not too complicated, for i can help
Usually, it's or too hard...or too late

Too much MASTERS of programming haunt this forum, there is surely a nest hidden somewhere

Again welcome in the powerfull word of PB and his champion team
