CSVtoInt

Extract a single parameter from a CSV formatted string.

Description#

CSVtoInt( const data[], item, decimals )

Extract single numeric parameter from a CSV formatted string.

Parameters#

`data`	CSV formatted string
`item`	Which item to extract. The first item is 1.
`decimals`	Number of decimals to extract

Assuming the input data is properly formatted as a CSV string (comma separated), this command finds the item by count and evaluates the item as a number. If decimals is larger than 0, that number of decimals will be added, and the resulting integer multiplied by 10 for each decimal.

Return value#

The integer value of the item.

Example usage#

   new val;
   new csvdata{} = "123, 1234.56, \"some string\", \"more data\"";
 
   val = CSVtoInt( csvdata, 2, 3 ); 
 
   // val will be 1234560
