wow JRL how did you figure that one out?

thanks again adroege

thanks, I made this too for cutting off decimals, it can be modified to round too. I just don't understand why common math functions are so difficult to get to in macrosheduler; I've also had to build my own factorial script too; so frustrating to do that when one ! is all I want teach a man to fish...

sorry if this is right in front of my nose, but how do I round numbers? or maybe specify to cut off decimals?

Thanx mtettmar! isn't that weird it was working at all?

also, before (and i wasn't doing much different), it was only printing the last 3 numbers after each comma and separating the lines

source

1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:02,590
¤£¤Ó¦n

2
00:00:06,520 --> 00:00:07,790
¤°¤\¥s¤£¤Ó¦n


output

1
240 --> 00:00:02,590
¤£¤Ó¦n
0
2
520 --> 00:00:07,790
¤°¤\¥s¤£¤Ó¦n
0

let>e=0
let>l=0




label>entry
add>e,1
label>line
add>l,1

ReadLn>D:\DESKTOP\subs\1.srt,l,a
if>a=##EOF##,end




writeln>D:\DESKTOP\new text document1.txt,a

if>le=l,entry

label>end

I am trying to copy a line from one text to another but
00:00:01,240 is being replaced with 240
and blank lines are replaced with 0

can that be fixed?

i saw that page b4 I posted, tried it, couldn't get it to work. no bother though, i wrote my own subroutine to do the job. still just hoping there is an easier way. seems quite strange to need to do all this for a fairly common mathematical function

as in for example, how do I script:

4!

how do I do factorial?

thank you everyone, I have found this works with no need to mess with varexplicit

I'm trying to do something like this

Let>k=1
Let>a=1
let>k+ a=1

where let>k+ a=1 will produce a variable called 11
