I was trying to use this code:

and it keeps saying something about the parameters not being right. Am I not allowed to use text for # or something?

the default type for # is float (real number) so if you haven't declared:

difficulty# as string

it will expect a real number (and will accept an integer, but not a string!).

btw, whatever you do, if you're using both difficulty$ and difficulty# in your app, remember that they are completely different and separate variables holding their own values. ie, they are not interchangable.

for more info, check Principles, then Data Types & Variables from the Main Menu of the help files.
