I have an array, and it is 10 by 10. It reads data from a file, 1, or a 2, maybe a 3. (tile engine ) It loads it as a$ or something into the array, so the array is a variable. Then I have the proggy read from the array at x,y and do something if the number is ___...But, since it is put into a STRING instead of a number, well, it doesn't work.

When I val(the_array$(x,y)) it gives weird numbers that ARE NOT 1, 2, or 3...


Help!!!

Nope, the val() gives *REALLY* weird numbers like 0, 1, or -1, -3.3439204828439024 etc...

Is there a way to "read integer 1, a" instead of "read string 1, a$" ????
