• Joel (4/4) Nov 14 2019 I made a feature that converts, say, [9:59am] -> [10:00am] to 1
• Jon Degenhardt (4/8) Nov 14 2019 Use a string or char[] array. e.g. writeln("9".to!int) => 9.
• Joel (2/11) Nov 14 2019 Thanks, Jon Degenhardt. I did work it out.

Doesn't seem right... I'm guessing that's standard though, same 
with ldc.

Use a string or char[] array. e.g. writeln("9".to!int) => 9.

With a single 'char' what is being produced is the ascii value of 
the character.
