StrFormat,[INC / DEC / MULT / DIV]

Syntax

StrFormat,<Action>,<%var%>,<n>

These commands are used to modify the value of a given number based on the arithmetic operation you select. It's also important to specify the value <n> to use to perform this operation.

  • Note: Only positive values allowed as the value of <n> - in other words, you can't decrement by a negative value - use increment instead!

The result is written back to the variable (%var%).

  • Note: While negative numbers are supported by this variable value, they can not be used as constant arguments to the command (as mentioned above).

List of possible Action values

  • inc - increase (%var% + n)
  • dec - decrease (%var% - n)
  • mult - multiply (%var% * n )
  • div - division (%var% / n)
where n is the last parameter on this command and should always be a numeric value.

Example:

In this example we have a variable called %LoopAgain% with a value of 10. Once we increase the value of this value with the last parameter of this command we will get the same variable %LoopAgain% with a value of 15. This same example applies for all other available actions.
