How do I convert an integer to a string in CVI?

[Double_D]

Is there a function in CVI comparable to itoa in MS C?

The easiest way to do this is to use the Fmt function. This is included in the Formatting and I/O Library in CVI. These are very powerful functions. See the function panel to get more help for this function. Here is some example code which converts an integer to a string:

int num = 20;
char *word[10];

Fmt (word, "%d", num);

Now the character array 'word' holds the string "10". This automatically null terminates the string also.

Remember to place the following header:

#include "<" formatio.h ">"


The quotes around the brackets are to fool the html parser...
