Why does it returns '0' ?

[AlmarM]

Hi,

Why does my var returns '0'?

$a = Number(00000000)
MsgBox(0, "", $a)

$b = 00000000
MsgBox(0, "", $B)

$c = ClipPut(00000000)
MsgBox(0, "", ClipGet())

I want it to return '00000000'.

$a = Number(00000000)
MsgBox(0, "", $a)

$b = 00000000
MsgBox(0, "", $b)

$c = ClipPut('00000000')
MsgBox(0, "", ClipGet())

000000 = 0.

"000000" = "000000"

Numbers don't save superfluous zeros.

I need 00000000 then +1 (00000001) etc. Until 99999999

$x = 1

$c = ClipPut(StringFormat("%08s\n", $x))

MsgBox(0, "", ClipGet())

Whahaha, I fixed it with an other way.

I did it this way:

(FileWrite is because the example)

$i = 0

While 1
    _Check($i)
    FileWrite(@DesktopDir & "\Test.txt", $i & @CRLF)
    $i += 1
    If $i = 99999999 Then
        Msgbox(0, "", "Done!")
        Exit
    EndIf
WEnd

Func _Check($i)
    If StringLen($i) = 2 Then
        FileWrite(@DesktopDir & "\Test.txt", "000000")
    ElseIf StringLen($i) = 3 Then
        FileWrite(@DesktopDir & "\Test.txt", "00000")
    ElseIf StringLen($i) = 4 Then
        FileWrite(@DesktopDir & "\Test.txt", "0000")
    ElseIf StringLen($i) = 5 Then
        FileWrite(@DesktopDir & "\Test.txt", "000")
    ElseIf StringLen($i) = 6 Then
        FileWrite(@DesktopDir & "\Test.txt", "00")
    ElseIf StringLen($i) = 7 Then
        FileWrite(@DesktopDir & "\Test.txt", "0")
    ElseIf StringLen($i) = 8 Then
        FileWrite(@DesktopDir & "\Test.txt", "")
    Else
        FileWrite(@DesktopDir & "\Test.txt", "0000000")
    EndIf
EndFunc

wouldn't a for or do loop be easier?

I only used While loops for a couple years. I understood how they worked and the other ones scared me. More work, but if it gets the job done, whatever.
