Hello,
Today i was playing with lists in programs and in particular list of strings. Please tell me if i am wrong with explorations.
1) sort(list) doesn't work with strings. Items are unchanged after 'sort'. 'Sort' does work with numbers.
2) i am not able to delete an item of a list in my program. I was trying to remove a string from a list in vain. Since i wasn't able to remove it, i assigned an empty value "" to it. Do you know which command there is to remove an item from a list? I could write a program to do it in case it doesn't exist.
3) i read somewhere in this forum that the way to assign a string to a variable via a Input() command was to define the variable and assign a value to it like:
local X2:="";
input (x2, "my title","my variable");
The result is not very useful. I can see an empty string into the variable entry field but i cannot use it because i edit the command line so i have to manually add the string "" and then entry my text.
4) I defined an input() of a string in a "repeat... until..." loop. When i run into this loop the first time i can entry the string but starting from the second loop, when i see the input screen of the string, i can still see the value i entered during the first run. Did you encouter the same issue?
Thanks
Giancarlo
P.s. please answers to my points referring to the point numbers i indicated. The reading will be easier.
