Digits$

Result$ = Digits$(InputValue, Digits)

Parameters:     InputValue = The Value you wish to format to a zero padded string     Digits = The number of digits the resulting string should have

Returns:     Result$ = the value converted to a padded string

The Digits$() function is similar to the str$() function, except Digits$ will zero pad the resulting string for us. So we can be sure the resulting string will be a fixed length. FACTS:       * This is handy when displaying/formatting numeric values to the screen, such as game scores and life counters.      * If your value overflows the number of selected Digits to return, those decimal places will be lost.       * Does not support negative values. Mini Tutorial: Display the numbers 1 to 10 zero padded to 4 digits.    ; Make a loop to count from 1 to 10   For lp =1 To 10    ; Display the loop counter, padding each value to 4 diigts..      Print Digits$(lp,4)   Next    ; Display the Screen and wait for the user to press a key   Sync   WaitKey    This example would output.      0001   0002   0003   0004   0005   0006   0007   0008   0009   0010
