Hi i have done the lite-c workshop but the lines i dont get is...

PANEL* pDisplay =
{
digits (10, 10, 5, *, 1, number_of_days);
flags = VISIBLE;
}

What does the digits do? And what does the pdisplay mean? Oh yh and when i type this script up into my own the errors occor here?

"digits" is the included variables that displaying a number only, "pDisplay" is the defined variables of your PANEL* have. you change it any name you want. i think that "number_of_days" in your code is not defined, maybe it must a function number_of_days(). try it and i think it will run.

number of days is a variable that is being displayed here. You will need to define it if you haven't already. "5" is the format. I just finished the workshops myself, but (if this is workshop 2 that you are reffereing to), the "5" in your code is "a = %0.f". So, if you want "number_of days" to be displayed like the calculator in the workshop, your code would look like

PANEL* pDisplay =
{
digits(10, 10, "number_of_days %0.f", *, 1, number of days);
flags = VISIBLE;
}

Again, number_of_days must be defined as a var at the top of your code. Hope this helps.
