Converting Numbers to Strings

[Billmini]

I want to be able to convert a price say Close or Open from my chart and be able to save in a text file in the middle of a string .

NinjaTrader is controlled via strings output to text files so in order to insert a specific price into a string I need to be able to convert a number in a string so I can use concat to assemble the string with my price in the middle of it .

I have searched though EFS Help and other sources and have not found the function to do this .

I need to do this for floating point numbers and integers .

Thanks

try this

var num = 123.567899;
var txt = "order is";

var combined = "my "+txt+" "+num.toFixed(2);

debugPrintln ("the result of this combo is: "+combined);//this output goes to the formula output window

no real need to use the concat function
