You may have already seen how to get a string and convert it to int in the Computer–micro:bit Talk tutorial. Here, the int result after calculations is also converted back to a string.
Example script: convert_your_turn
- Enter, name, and save convert_your_turn.
- Click the Send to micro:bit button.
# convert_your_turn from microbit import * sleep(1000) s = "1234" print("Before int conversion:") print("s =", s) print() n = int(s) # convert to int n2 = n + n # add s2 = str(n2) # convert back print("After convert, add ints, convert back:") print("s2 =", s2)
- Check the results in the serial monitor.
- Verify that the resulting s2 string contains the characters "2468" that represent the result of adding two 1234 int values together.
