Was just running STxAxTIC's program provided in SierraKen's "Moving Water Waves" program thread and notice the use of String Value for an otherwise Numeric number request in Select Case. ie the menu called for a menu select of numbers 1 - 16 with 99 to quit however the number was captured as a string value (input a$) and the cases where all the string of the number ("1","2","3" etc) I'm just curious STxAxTIC, was there an advantage in that program to use string values rather than numeric? or is this just a perferred coding style?
