scan for string

[rCassani]

HI erveryone,

I am working with the Scan from String fuction, but I have a problem. The string that I have as input is "temp=32.2", so I am using the Scan function as follows:

But as output 1 I have "temp=32.2" and 0 in the output 2.

Does anyone have an idea of how to separate "temp" in output1 and 32.2 in output2?

Thanks for your help

Try a format of "%4s=%f"

Thank you for early answer, but, what happens if my string is size-variable? I mean for some readings I have temp=32.2 for others something like: voltage=122.1,  current=12, or humd=51.2

The you need to program around it, for example as follows. There are many ways to do this...

Just make a small change to your format string, easy to do when you construct the format string from the dialog in the right-click menu.

he wants the leading string too, maybe....

That sits in the first output.
