Performing math functions when reading input

[kjpolker]

So I have an input box with a value in it such as 10, I want the value of 10 to be altered using math the way I want it when it is read, for example of what I am trying to get at here is a sample script that obviously doesn't work but you should get the idea.

$Form2 = GUICreate("Form2", 144, 128, 303, 217)
$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Value", 24, 24, 65, 21)
$Input2 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Value", 24, 48, 65, 21)

Get what I mean?

Send(GUICtrlRead($Input1) / 2)
Send(GUICtrlRead($Input1) * 2)
Send(GUICtrlRead($Input1) + 2)
Send(GUICtrlRead($Input1) - 2)

What if there is no parenthesis? In my case it is a loop time:

Until $times = GUICtrlRead($input4) / 5

And for some reason it does its loop the amount of times in my input box rather the the amount divided by 5.

i made this app a while back to calculate KDR (Kill Death Ratio) for first person shooter games.. it might come in handy for your cause.. i dont know about the notepad deal, but check it out.

and not having parenthesis as you've put it is fine.. it'll work that way
