Re: TIB: number to string... WORKS!
:{0,1}/->/C ;need this..
:{A,A}/->/D ;changes the number you want into a data
;set.
:LinR C,D ;a linear regression of the two data
;sets. it takes the point (0,1) and
;(A,A) and finds the equation of the
;line between them. You will get an
;equation of something like Ax+0
;(i think).
:Eq>St(ReqEq,B) ;this changes the equation into a
;string.
:sub(B,1,(lngth(B)-3))/->/B ;this takes the string and
;removes the x+0 part of it, and then
;stores A into B as a string.
it is a simple, really extremely useful
