numba

Numbers

Turn text into a number.

How to write it

numba(<text>)

What it does

blorp always gives back text, even when someone types 7. numba("7") turns that text into a real number so math works.

It also cleans up extra spaces people type.

Example

grunk answer = blorp "Pick a number!"
grunk n = numba(answer)
oga n, "plus one is", n + 1

Tips

• If the text is not a number, numba says OOGA! with a kind hint.
• A number passed to numba comes back unchanged.
