When Type casting a string to an int int the form:
string myString = "1";
integer x;
x = (integer)myString;
what value will x have and how does LSL interpret string to integer exlpicit typecasting?

x=1
string numbers will always convert properly to integer.
Also,
string myString = "boogers";
integer x;
will result in x=0 if memory serves correctly.

Hmm, I'll run some tests later, I'd love to know what strings like "1 12 53" and "x324" will typcast to integer as.

From: Zodiakos Absolute Hmm, I'll run some tests later, I'd love to know what strings like "1 12 53" and "x324" will typcast to integer as. if a string starts with an integer, you get the integer and the text is ignored...IE: string myString = "5 dfssdf"; integer x; x = (integer)myString; x=5 if you have multiple numbers, only numbers up to the 1st space are typecast IE: string myString = "2 34 567"; integer x; x = (integer)myString; x=2 all text is always 0, even if numerics follow IE: string myString = "snot5323"; integer x; x = (integer)myString; x=0 |

Even better, you can specify numbers in other formats as well, like hex:
string myString = "0x10";
integer x;
x = (integer)myString;
x=16
