UBC PLUS LIBRARY 15 F. STRING-HANDLING_AND_CONVERSION_ROUTINES _______________ ___ __________ ________ This section describes various routines for converting to and from character form, and performing other character handling. They can be divided into roughly the following categories. 1. "Input Conversion" routines. These are procedures to convert character strings to various internal forms. The following procedures are in this group: Hex_String_To_Bits Hex_String_To_Varying String_To_Integer String_To_Real The following are also input conversion routines, but are "lower-level" routines called from the above. These may also be used directly when appropriate. Hex_Chars_To_Bits Hex_Chars_To_Varying Digits_To_Integer Construct_Real 2. "Output Conversion" routines. These are procedures which take various internal forms and produce character strings. The following procedures are in this group: | Address_To_Varying Bits_To_Hex_Varying Chars_To_Hex_Varying Integer_To_Varying Line_Number_To_Varying Picture_Format String_To_Hex_Varying 3. Miscellaneous character handling routines. are in this group: The following Append_Varying Case_Conversion Fill Fill_Fixed_String Fill_Varying_String Pad Pad_Varying_String The descriptions of all these follow, in alphabetical order.
