You don't understand because you are not a programmer. Here is the programming method:
value of "12 in 16" is 12.00 (everything after the 12 is ignored)
value of "12:16" is 12+16 = 28.00 (something in the program changed the : to a +
value of 12/16 is 3/4
These things are only understood based on the programming language. Basically all of your examples are handled as a text string and in order to determine a numerical value of the text a subroutine is called. It's the subroutine that looks at each character and constructs a numerical value. Programatically that would look like:
nValue := val("12 in 16") = 12
nValue := val("12")+val("16") = 28 // note: programmer replaced the : with a +
nValue := val("12")/val("16") = 3/4Last edited by Joe Carrick; 12-19-2012 at 02:20 PM.
