How to mask a num value?

AlexK

Hi,

I have a number of 104 (example, changes depeding on what the number I get from the PLC is). I would like to read the two last digits of 104 (04) and read that into a new num, is this possible in RAPID? Shearched but can't find anything regarding that.

 

Best regards,

Alexander K

Hi Alexander,

Try this:

m = your original integer

n = the two last digits

n = m - Trunc(m  / 100) * 100

Example:

m = 1234

m / 100 = 1234 / 100 = 12.34

Trunc(m / 100) = Trunc(12.34) = 12

Trunc(m  / 100) * 100 = 12 * 100 = 1200

n = m - Trunc(m  / 100) * 100 = 1234 - 1200 = 34

Disclaimer: This algorithm was not tested in RAPID and needs to be validated before put into production.

Thank you very much, need to put me into the above examples, I'm not a math genius, but I don't think it will be a problem, else I will bother the two of you again

Best regards,
