Hi, I've been subscribed to this news group for a long time (ok, when I
first started using Ada, about 2 months ago!), but this is the first time
I've actually had problems with the language and well, I was wondering if
you guys can help me.
I've got this assignment for university that I have to do, and I am having
problems with the first bit (Not a good sign, is it....).
I've got a data file, which contains a line of data for a vehicle, and on
the line, it gives a place name, a registration number, and the time that
the car goes onto a motorway. A typical line is as follows....
Barnsley A123 22 15 40
....
....
Where Barnsley is the place, A123 is the Registration number, and 22 15
40 is the time (22:15:40). I've managed to get the Place name (using
characters) and the registration number (using Strings), and putting it into
a record, but I am unsure as to what to use for the time. I could (I think)
use characters, but I need to manipulate the times later on in the program
(which could be done by having the time as an integer), but because there
are blanks in between the numbers, I am unsure as to how I can do this. Help
me please....
I appreciate any help given.
Thanks.
J
