I would like to find out how many thousands,hundreds,tens and singles in a number Ex: 6476, and place each category in varibles Ex: singles,tens,hundreds and thousands

Any help with an example in spin will be greately appriciated.

Thank you.

something like:

   singles := number//10
   tens := (number/10)//10
   hundreds := (number/100)//10
   thousands := number/1000

Tom's code works (I tested) -- I borrowed from it to create this method that lets you set the number of digits captured from a value, always starting from the 1s end.

pub get_digits(value, digits, p_digits)

  repeat digits
    byte[p_digits++] := value // 10
    value /= 10

This works, too. Call it like this:

  get_digits(myValue, 4, @singles)

Of course, it you want to fiddle with larger numbers you can use this from OBEX.
