Question about string conversion shortcut... - webmasterpdx - 10-17-2017 03:09 AM
I've seen programs use the following:
T:=""+V;
instead of:
T:=STRING(V);
to convert V to a string from a numerical value inside a program.
The first version seems to work. I'm wondering, is it faster than the latter? Anyone know?
Thanks

Hello,
The STRING() version will be faster and take less RAM.
