Convert Integer to Character String Example

This example demonstrates the use of the ISTR function to convert the integer portion of a number to a string.

   ENTITY/L(4),N1
   STRING/STR(8)
   L(1)=LINE/0,0,12.75,0
   L(2)=LINE/PARLEL,L(1),YLARGE,.75
   L(3)=LINE/0,0,0,.75
   L(4)=LINE/12.75,0,12.75,.75
   NUM=&LENGTH(L(1))
   NUM=NUM+1
   STR=ISTR(NUM)
   N1=NOTE/6,-.75,'ROUGH STOCK REQUIRED = '+STR

This creates the following note below the part:

ROUGH STOCK REQUIRED = 13
