Converting variables?

This is a discussion, pls do not put “I think that’s impossible” or something like that.

This is something cool…

but if we don’t want the commas we can do this

This helps us convert numbers to text.

My question is:
Can we convert text to numbers?

The premise of this is that the text IS MADE UP OF numbers, eg.

we want to change that to this

I’m confused. Wouldn’t it display the value of the variable in this case?

[Grey_Stone]

Yes, you can. Set the variable to the text. Then, multiply it by 1. That will output the numbers.

[Grey_Stone]

It would, but in text form, not number form.

[ClicClac]

Yes, just multiply the text by 1.

[Nas-Tea]

Ohh, I get it now. So if I’m correct, the create text with block turns the number variable into a text one, like if you wanted to text the text of a text-related (say a text, popup, game overlay)

thanks! I really needed to know this
