maybe with [mod]. Is the number always going to have 3 digits??

playing around in 3 minutes, I came up with this (see picture attached). I do not consider it to be elegant, but maybe its a place to start

cheers

You can do this:
- transform "float 512" into "symbol 512" using [makefilename %d]
- then transform "symbol 512" into "list 53 49 50" with [list fromsymbol].
- finally subtract 48 (which is the ascii for "0") from every item, you get "5 1 2"

Hi there,

which would be your most elegant way to split a number into a list of digits? that is, I have the number 512 and I want the list 5 1 2
