How to convert stored numbers from a text file

[jb27]

Hi,

Please help

problem 1 :
I have a text file.
In this file, there are numbers.
Each line is one number, a float.

I can read these numbers but only as text.
That should not be a problem but, I need this floats as floats.
Normally, in VB, I use csng(mystring) and it's ok.

problem 2 :
When I will be able to have my floats as floats,
I want to use Array As Float (my_float_1_in_my_txt, my_float_2_in_my_txt, my_float_3_in_my_txt, my_float_4_in_my_txt,my_float_1_in_my_txt...................)

But I can not find the way to put all these floats from my txt in this array.

solution for problem 1

It is easy to solve problem 1

When you use file.readline and use a variable, it must not be a string but a list :

Dim line As List
Dim Reader As TextReader
Reader.Initialize(File.OpenInput(File.DirAssets , "jb.txt"))
line=Reader.Readlist
Reader.Close

now, you can get your float :

Dim myarrayoffloat () As Float
myarrayoffloat = Array As Float (line.Get (0),line.Get (1))

but now, I cannot find how to ask my array to get all of my list value.
I have tried it, but it doesn't work :


For mycycle=0 To line.Size-1
myarrayoffloat = Array As Float(line.get(rotor))
Next

has anybody the solution ?

The Array As Float statement should be used when you want to fill an array with static data. This is not the case here.
You should use code similar to:

Dim list1 As List
list1 = File.ReadList(File.DirAssets, "jb.txt")
Dim floats(list1.Size) As Float
Dim s As String
For i = 0 To list1.Size - 1
 s = list1.Get(i)
 floats(i) = s 'Strings are converted to floats automatically
Next
