Addition of two variables

[Hicham_777]

var1 = 1

var2 = 2

var3 = var1 + var2

var3 = 1  + 2

var3 = 12

I want the code that combines two variables like this

It this piece of code supposed to be AutoIt3 syntax?   Don't think so, just open the helpfile and check the proper syntax.

After a long search I couldn't find it but I think there is, It's just a matter of time 

Whoever has the code can show us it

[Hicham_777]

the solution is var3 = var1 & var2

thanks for your suport.

Are you sure?    Whatever.

In AutoIt, if you want to concatenate two variables without performing arithmetic addition, you can simply use the "&" operator. Here's how you can do it:

; Define variables
Local $var1 = 1
Local $var2 = 2

; Concatenate variables
Local $var3 = $var1 & $var2

; Display the concatenated value
MsgBox(0, "Concatenated Result", $var3)

Here's a simplified version:

Local $var1 = 1, $var2 = 2
Local $var3 = $var1 & $var2
MsgBox(0, "Concatenated Result", $var3)

Here's the most concise version:

Local $var3 = "1" & "2"
MsgBox(0, "Concatenated Result", $var3)

In the AutoIt help file, the concept of concatenation may not be explicitly listed under a specific section with that term. However, the functionality of concatenation is often explained in various sections that cover string manipulation or operations involving strings.

Here's where you can find information related to concatenation in the AutoIt help file:

1. String Handling Functions: The AutoIt help file contains a section dedicated to string handling functions. Functions like StringConcatenate, StringFormat, StringRegExpReplace, and others involve string manipulation, which indirectly covers concatenation.

2. Operators: The help file includes a section on operators where you can find information about the string concatenation operator (&). It explains how the & operator can be used to concatenate strings and concatenate variables with strings.

3. Examples: The help file often includes examples demonstrating various operations, including string concatenation. These examples can be found throughout the documentation, particularly in sections related to string manipulation or variable usage.

While the term "concatenation" might not be explicitly listed, the functionality and usage of concatenating strings are covered in the contexts mentioned above within the AutoIt help file.

Here's the code in AutoIt that combines two variables:

Er, no! If you read the OP, (s)he wants to concatenate the 2 variables - not perform arithmetic addition. The use of the "&" operator is entirely correct in this case.

You are absolutely correct Melba23! I misread the OP request. I edited my response to reflect the correct logic. Thanks! for pointing that out to me. 🤯

Don't forget you're turning it into a string at some of your examples.  While most functions will still work backwards it's safer to just cast it if you still need to use it as a number/int (eg.. Number("1" & "2.3") or Int("1" & "2") as an example).
