- Write yourself a function which invokes the Str procedure. Such a
- routine should be in your global Unit, so you can access for every/any
- program you create. Here are mine:
- }
-
- function FSI(N : Longint; W : byte) : string; { Convert LongInt to String }
- var
- S : string;
- begin
- if W > 0 then
- Str(N : W, S)
- else
- Str(N, S);
- FSI := S;
- end;
-
- function FSR(N : real; W, D : byte) : string; { Convert Real to String }
- var
- S : string;
- begin
- Str(N : W : D, S);
- FSR := S;
- end;
