Hi guys
I need some help. I have a file with both numeric and character data.
and i imported these to a 2d array(of type string) in mosel.
Now, this is what I wanna try...
Can I access a column from this array and then extract the numeric
value (in effect i wanna convert the string type info to numeric data
type) .
Like for ex... if i have the following row in an array in mosel
1 12 asd 34 abb
can i access the values 1, 12 and 34 and use them as numerics (as in,
can i later on use these in calculations as numbers; they are
currently defined as string types))?
is there a function which can convert string type to numeric ...or
something that can extract numeric information from within a
string????
