Convert array of strings to array of numbers

Solved!
Go to solution

How do I convert an array of strings (that are numbers) to an array of numbers so I can find the maximum value? I've tried using the code below in the snippet but my numbers are coming out way too large.

What is the tool that you used to do that (the one icon that say 999).  This is just a picture, so I can't actually find what that is called or what pallet it is in.

Decimal String To Number Function

 

(Note that if your values are not integers, you might want to use this instead)

BEWARE that unless these are interger strings, you want to use FRACT/EXP String to Number!!!

It's actually not "just a picture".  It is a snippet.  If you drage that image from Internet Explorer to your block diagram, it drops it as code.
