bolendo YaBB Newbies Offline Posts: 8	Re: Processing to txt and txt to processing Reply #5 - Apr 23^rd, 2010, 1:40am okay, now the problem is, I can't use strings function because I dont't now how to convert "string[]" to "string". I want to use "charAt(int)" but it isn't compatible with a "string[]" how can I convert?

That would be: Code: String thirdLetter = secondLine.substring(2, 3); if (thirdLetter.equals("a")) println("That's the one!");
