Changing a Word into an array of Strings

[Harry1]

So right now i have variable. which is a Word, and i wish to change it into an array of Strings in a way shown below

START

Word car := "car"

END

str[0] := "c"
str[1] := "a"
str[2] := "r"

Is this even possible, and if so how would i go about doing this. Any help will appreciated
Thanks ^^

Harry1,

I'm not sure exactly what you are wanting to do. When you define a string it essentially is already stored as an array. You can use the byte modifier
to read or change individual characters.




CON
_clkmode = xtal1 + pll16x
_xinfreq = 5_000_000

OBJ
text : "vga_text"

VAR
byte str[3]

PUB start
str := string("car") 'define 'str' variable

text.start(16) 'Start VGA adapter
text.out(0)

text.out(byte[str+0]) 'Display 'c'
text.out(13)

text.out(byte[str+1]) 'Display 'a'
text.out(13)

text.out(byte[str+2]) 'Display 'r'
text.out(13)

byte[str+2] := "t" 'Change 'r' to a 't'
text.out(13)

text.out(byte[str+0]) 'Display 'c'
text.out(13)

text.out(byte[str+1]) 'Display 'a'
text.out(13)

text.out(byte[str+2]) 'Display 't'
text.out(13)

repeat
