Difference between these two sintaxis?

[Fernando Jose Velasco Borea]

Hello all, I'm learning MQL4 and I'd like to know the difference between these three ways of coding:

//The idea is to combine a written message with a value

int A = 5;
int B = 10;

int C = A + B;

//Which one would be the best option?

Alert("5 + 10 is equal to " + C); //Option 1


Alert("5 + 10 is equal to ", C); //Option 2


Alert("5 + 10 is equal to " IntegerToString(C)); //Option 3

And, the SomethingToString is available to be used with wich operators? (DoubleToString, IntegerToString,...)

Best Regards,

Fernando.

Option 3 is wrong code....

correct code is

Alert("5 + 10 is equal to ", IntegerToString(C)); //Option 3

else, all coding return same result

Why did you post your MT4 question in the Root / MT5 General section instead of the MQL4 section, (bottom of the Root page?)

Next time post in the correct place. The moderators will likely move this thread there soon.

Personally, I use StringFormat() for this sort of thing.

Alert(StringFormat("5 + 10 is equal to %d", C);
