String interpolation - Misiur - 16.03.2016

Hi guys, I forgot how to use string interpolation. Is there some post about it somewhere? Example of what I remembered (but isn't working of course)

pawn Код:

#define MAX_CUSTOM (5);
//...
print("I like " #MAX_CUSTOM " cakes");

Re: String interpolation - jlalt - 16.03.2016

Instead of ( ) use " " and you don't need ; in it example:

PHP код:



#define MAX_CUSTOM "5"

//...
print("I like " #MAX_CUSTOM " cakes");

";" was a typo, sorry about that.
I know about inserting quoted defines, but I need the value to be a number, and that's the thing I can't remember

do you mean something like that :3?

PHP код:



#define MAX_CUSTOM 5

//...

print("I like "#MAX_CUSTOM" cakes");

Its because Macros are just text replacements, you cannot have this:

Quote:

print("I like "#MAX_CUSTOM" cakes");
I like "#(5)" cakes

You need to remove those brackets where you declare it.

Ah, missed that one. Thought # wouldn't care bout parentheses. Thanks!
