Basically,

set gold_make [expr int ($gold_make) + $gold_new]

should be

set gold_make [expr $gold_make + $gold_new]

You'll have decimal points in your answer though! If you want to get rid of them, use something like:

regexp {^([^\.]*)} $gold_make x intpart

now $intpart is the gold with no decimal point. Hope it helps!

Oh ya, the big difference between floating point and integer is that floating point can have decimals.. but the *other* big difference is that floating point numbers can be huge, much much bigger than integers. As you can see with this example:

% set x 10000000000000
10000000000000
% expr $x
integer value too large to represent
% set x 10000000000000.0
10000000000000.0
% expr $x
1e+13

i still don't understand how to get it to work that way.

i don't know scripting at all.

Floating point, isn't a Tcl term.

It is used to discribe a type of number.

There are integers, which are whole numbers.

Floating point, which have a decimal point in.

I am not that good in tcl so i don't know what you mean with floating point.

any example that you can give me?

Anything's possible! First try using floating point instead of integer. (I.e. get rid of the int() part.) If that doesn't work find a "bignum" package for tcl.

Hi,

I have a script that is used for a online game.

People can use it to calculate money in their bank with the use of interest.

They put the gold in their bank account and also the hours they want to see. for example: "richard calc 7646383 5" where 5 is the hours.

The script i have does work, but has a maximum of 10 digits.

Also when 10 digits is used, it puts a - before the total.

Is there a way to make it so that it calculates people's gold witch are more than 10 digits?

The code is:

Code:

            set gold_start [lindex $arg 1]             set gold_hours [lindex $arg 2]                        set check 1        set gold_make "$gold_start"        while {$check != [expr $gold_hours +1]} {          set gold_new [expr $gold_make * 0.01]          set gold_make [expr int ($gold_make) + $gold_new]                        set check [incr check]        }             putserv "PRIVMSG $channel :After $gold_hours hour(s) in the bank, $gold_start gold will be [expr int($gold_make)] gold."           }

Regards mkluin
