Easylanguage Text Labels

Recommended Posts

Was wondering if anyone had any ideas for the following problem.

 

Say I want to plot the High of the day for Bonds. Well when i tell EL to do that it converts it to a decimal.

 

EX:

 

High of Day is 115 25.0

Easylanguage converts that to 115.78 ( 25/32=.78)

 

I would like the text to show 115 25.0 instead of the decimal.

 

Dont know if this is at all possible. I should also mention that I am using Open Ecry, not sure if that would matter but I know their are differences between TS and MC.

 

Any help is appreciated.

The fraction you see on the screen is only a presentation.

Internally the computer operates in binary numbers, and the software/human interface is in decimal.

 

EasyLanguage was never designed to handle text, therefore the capabilities are limited.

It is possible to convert the decimal to fraction, you have to make it to jump through some hoops first.

The idea is to convert the whole numbers and decimals separately, then join them up with a slash "/".

 

Someone might have written a function to do that. I haven't come across it yet.
