How do you display a variable on the TV screen

krazyideas

If I want to change a variable and then display the new value on the TV screen?

If k = 5
·· r := r - 1
·· term.str (string("· "))· How would I change this line?????

You use the .dec function built into TV_Text. It is also built into many of the other output objects by Parallax and others. (TV_Text, Fullduplexserial, etc.).
Use:

if k == 5
  r := r - 1
  term.dec(r)
