two small questions

| Okay, first question is, how do I print a result of an input into the same line, where I'm asking for another input? Here's my code. Local name:String=Input("What is your name? ") StandardIOStream "Hello, " +name+ ". " Local age=Byte(Input("Hello, " +name+ ". I was wondering how you are?")) Print "I see. " +age+ " old." That StandardIOStream is just because I was advised to use it, but the guy trying to help me did not have time to help me to the end. I tried everything myself like Local StandardIOStream and StandardIOStream.TStream with no success. Second question: I tried to create a random number generator. The code: Test = Rand(1,8) Print Test For this I also got some advice to use RndSeed(millisecs), but I didn't quite catch the idea by using BlitzMax's help menu for RndSeed() Cheers Mindfield |

| can't you just use print? I'm not sure what you're trying to do, but this works just fine: Local name:String=Input("What is your name? ")
Print "Hello, " +name+ ". "
Local age=Byte(Input("Hello, " +name+ ". I was wondering how you are?"))
Print "I see. " +age+ " old."
About the random.. use SeedRnd(Millisecs()) The SeedRnd() command will take a parameter which will set a new seed for the random generator. When you use millisecs() you make sure that the other random commands will actually be random. |

| I just thought it'd be cleaner to have the answer written on the same line, because I want to focus on story-rich action adventures and rpg's. |

| You probably wouldn't want to use input/print though. |
