[QUESTION] "internal string table" - compsystems - 12-07-2016 01:48 PM
Hello HP-PRIME programmers and users
The STRINGFROMID cmd says
Quote:STRINGFROMID
Syntax: STRINGFROMID(integer) Returns, in the current language, the built-in string associated in the internal string table with the specified integer.
Examples: STRINGFROMID(56) returns “Complex” STRINGFROMID(202) returns “Real”
Where is the "internal string table"?
I can not find in the user guide the "internal string table" interger values

They are not documented...
A simple FOR loop will show the strings on your system.

Thanks, I want to create an output string where each line can be displayed independently, it seems that CAR (10) "\n" does not do what I want when copy in a text editoras notepad++
test
PHP Code:
EXPORT id2str()
BEGIN
LOCAL int, str;
str:="";
print();
print( "***** *****" );
for int from 1 to 50 do
print( int + " :" + STRINGFROMID(int) );
str:= str + char(10) + int + " :" + STRINGFROMID(int);
wait(); // line by line printing
end;
return str;
END;

It seems print("1\n2") prints two lines just fine on my setup. Also, print("1" + char(10) + "2") also works. Creating a string: str:="1" + CHAR(10) + "2" also works (copy the string from the stack and it appears in the command line as "1\n2"). On the calculator display, however, you won't see a newline character as strings are just printed as a single horizontal line of (visible) characters. In the HP48 calculators, CHAR(10) is just displayed as a black square inside a string. I believe on the Prime, it is suppressed.

Instead of return str; have you tried to store the strings in a Note with something like: Notes("IDSTRINGS"):=str; ?

I have not worked with NOTES, someone please adhere to the code above, this way I learn =)
Thanks

As I already explained, the HP screen shows strings as a single line since newlines are suppressed. It doesn't mean that there was any bug in the variable str. However, since you are copying the result from the display stack, you are copying the display version of your string variable and not the actual contents. You can check for yourself.
1. Make str an exported variable instead of a local variable.
2. In the Home view, type str and press enter. Your string will not show the newlines. Copying this to the command confirms this.
3. However, the str variable itself contains the newlines. Just type str(1) and it returns 10, the character number of the newline character. And type in char(str(2)) and you will see the next characters of the text saved in str.
EDIT: Didier has offered a perfectly fine example of how to extract the contents of your str variable for copying. It basically saves it as a note, found by pressing [Shift] [0]

Extracted in a .txt (Unicode) with the following code:
PHP Code:
// Use Number Format: Standard
EXPORT STRINGFRROMID_TXT
BEGIN
LOCAL Tx,x,Nmb="STRINGFROMID_"+Language+".txt";
DelAFiles(Nmb);
AFilesB(Nmb,0):={255,254};
FOR x:=0 TO 2996 DO
Tx:=x+"\t"+STRINGFROMID(x)+"\r\n";
LOCAL y,Nvo={};
FOR y:=1 TO DIM(Tx) DO
Nvo(0):=Tx(y);
Nvo(0):=BITSR(Tx(y),8)
END;
AFilesB(Nmb,AFilesB(Nmb)):=Nvo
END;
"Success!"
END;
