I should have seen that the lack of parens around a 'count' would
cause a problem, deivy - even though Script Editor didn't complain.
That should really have been:
That is funny, I thought I did change that but may be I did not.
Actually, I thought I had a number returning with 0.0+(character 2 of
"9").
But now, I do not get the same thing.
The bug has a bug!
You said it, deivy. How's the wording on that bug report coming along?
;-)
I am actually registering in English 400. I hope I'll be able to report
it after I finish it.
You want weird? I said earlier that "there seems to be a couple of
ways to change the result". What I hadn't considered was the
possibility of getting away with a real as an item number:
0 * (item 0.123456789 of "9")
--> 1.111111101
You know what, I get the same number...
set lista to {}
set n to "0."
repeat with j from 1 to 9
set n to ("" & n & j) * 1
set end of lista to {n, " ", (1 * (item n of "9"))}
end repeat
lista
