execute vs number?

[Aktonius]

Would you use

$a = Number($string) + Number($string2)

or

$a = Execute($string+$string2)

I have alot of the first case(using number) and wonder is it really worth it that i convert it to execute?

$a = $string + $string2

Unless it came from some strangly formatted source!

autoit makes the convertion automaticly use the string

$a = "50"
$b = 5
$c = $a + $b
consolewrite($c&@CRLF)

doesn´t matter what type are.

So what is the point of Execute then?

Think the Helpfile shows a pretty simple example to explain that...no?

I believe i am missing something since i dont see whats the diff

from example:

$a=1
$v=Execute("$a+1")  ; $v is set to 2

with

$v = $a + 1

?
