These three programs are utilities for converting real numbers to strings,

complex numbers to strings, and lists of real or complex numbers to

strings.

                  ******************************

CONV2STR.85G is a group file containing REAL2STR.85P, CPLX2STR.85P, and

LIST2STR.85P.  These programs were written by Pat Milheron of the TI

Graphics Team and are released to the public domain.  You may copy and

change these programs.





HOW TO USE REAL2STR.85P, CPLX2STR.85P, LIST2STR.85P



Each program assumes that the argument (real, cplx, or list) to be 

converted to a string is currently in Ans.  Each program loads the string 

result into Ans.  By using Ans to "pass" the data to and from these 

programs, they can easily be used as generic subroutines for larger 

application programs.  Below is an example of how to use Ans with REAL2STR:



    PROGRAM: MAIN

    : ...

    : 123.456 -> VAR1   (Ans is updated with the contents of VAR1)

    : REAL2STR

    : Ans -> STRING1    (Ans has the return string from REAL2STR)

    : ...



The REAL2STR.85P program is used as a subroutine call by CPLX2STR and

LIST2STR, and CPLX2STR is also a subroutine call for LIST2STR, so all 

three programs need to be resident in the TI-85.
