Kix will auto-convert without functions
Code:
$V = "6" ; number is a string type
$V = 0 + $V ; now it's a number
$V = '' + $V ; back to a string
$V = 1.0 * $V ; floating point
When Kix encounters an expression similar to above, the first value determines the result, casting all other values. Thus, if $V contained "6" (a string), then
Code:
$V + 4
would equal "64" and not 10.
