String of characters(array) to decimal value

[HenrikOlsson]

I don't understand the problem...The code in your first post should work just fine and so should that in your latest post - have you actually TRIED this or are you just thinking to much ;-)

myArray[0] = "H"

If myArray[0] = "H" THEN...
or
If myArray[0] = 72 THEN...
or
If myArray[0] = 001000 THEN...
or
If myArray[0] = $48 THEN...

Same thing as in my previous response - they are all the exact same thing just expressed in different ways.

Okay I'm a little confused...the following is what I'm actually trying to make it work..

I think my trouble is this part..

 for i=1 to z
        
        harf_reg = myArray[i]

        call data_sec

it produce this output (not HELLO WORLD)

But when I modify it to this code..

 for i=1 to z
        
        harf_reg = 64+i

        call data_sec

This is the output..


What do you think I'm missing in the process?

Thanks,

Hi,
Try using GOSUB instead of CALL.
Also, your FOR loop starts indexing at myArray[1] instead of myArray[0] but that's not the real problem.

Hi, I tried it already but no changes...probably I need to try it on the real hardware....I will post later any results.

Kind regards,

I thought it was a simulation issue so I tried it in the real device...but to my surprise I still get the same output..(not displaying 'HELLO WORLD')

I appreciate any input...

Thanks in advance,

Looks to me as if you load HELLO WORLD into your array and then the following statement "CLEAR" erases all of your good work. I would try moving clear up above the array loading statements.

Wow ..thank you for taking the time looking at the code...now it's working as expected..(yipee!).
Thank you Archangel and thanks Henrik....

Hi, I,m trying to modify the program by entering strings from serial communicator to make led matrix message display dynamic.
I've been trying to incorporate DT's LCDBackpack code to this led matrix application but I'm getting no results.
Here is what I'm doing...first is to test if interrupts will work.
1. In the main loop I'm sending text/data thru serial communicator
2. I'm using the LCDBackPack code to receive strings using "^" as the end text terminator.
3. When the terminator is detected it calls the sub process which is the ledmatrix code(post#5).
But I realized that it only happens once, and it never goes back to the main program to accept another set of text string...probably this is not a good solution to what I'm trying to achieve. I'm asking from the experienced members to give some pointers/suggestions that will solve the issue I'm having.
I appreciate any input and your time.
