| Function FromChar$( charCode ) I am putting together a little tutorial for my son (yes, he was a Blitz/Blitz3D baby and he and I are both getting up to speed with Monkey) to demonstrate methods used in the String class/type. I am not sure if I am understanding correctly how FromChar is used. Is a.FromChar(33)equivalent to the Chr$(32)?? --------------------------------------------------------------- Here is my example program for the various methods and FromChar function.
Function Main()
Local a:String = " Hello World "
Print "a = ~q Hello World ~q"
Print " "
Print " Methods:"
Print "Print a.ToLower ->"+a.ToLower
Print "Print a.ToUpper ->"+a.ToUpper
Print "Print a.Length ->"+a.Length
Print "Print a.Trim ->"+a.Trim
Print " "
Print "Print a.Replace(~q ~q,~q_~q) ->"+a.Replace(" ","_")
Print " "
Print "Print a.Find(~qHello~q) ->"+a.Find("Hello")
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q) ->"+a.Find("l")
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,0) ->"+a.Find("l",0)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,1) ->"+a.Find("l",1)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,2) ->"+a.Find("l",2)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,3) ->"+a.Find("l",3)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,4) ->"+a.Find("l",4)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,5) ->"+a.Find("l",5)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,6) ->"+a.Find("l",6)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,7) ->"+a.Find("l",7)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,8) ->"+a.Find("l",8)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,9) ->"+a.Find("l",9)
Print "Print a.Find(~ql~q,10) ->"+a.Find("l",10)
