Hello,
In a python script I need to convert a number into text. (I do not want a node)
Could you give me the python encoding of this line?
My test line is:
Elif Lparam [i] == “Text”:
??

Hi,
Thank you for your reply.

But I have an error on line 37 with this definition

Avertissement:IronPythonEvaluator.EvaluateIronPythonScript l'opération a échoué.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 37, in <module>
UnicodeDecodeError: ('unknown', u'\xe9', 0, 1, '')

This is an encoding problem. I guess you have in your text parameter some funny character like "é, å ä"
instead of using str(“your parameter”) try using “your parameter”.encode(“latin_1”) or .encode(“utf8”).

Hi,

But I have an error on line 37 with this definition

	elif Lparam[i] == "Text":
		Sortie.append(LparamV[i].encode("utf8"))

or Sortie.append(LparamV[i].encode(“latin_1”))

Avertissement:IronPythonEvaluator.EvaluateIronPythonScript l’opération a échoué.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “”, line 37, in
AttributeError: ‘float’ object has no attribute ‘encode’

Question: And if the value is already text, what happens?

Can you drop a dummy file here?

Hello,

In fact, the values come from an Excel file.
The problem is that sometimes a string value is recognized as a number.
So I make a test to know if the parameter should be a string and then convert it to string.
The value to be converted may be either a string or a number.

I think you can check that with isinstance (x, basestring)

Why this line does not work ?

Sortie.append(LparamV[i].encode(“utf8”))

My test is: elif Lparam[i] == “Text”:

I do not want to convert all the numbers.

It works on strings. Your error says you have a float

I have a translation problem, do you have an example?

Ok Viktor,
You were right, it’s good

	elif Lparam[i] == "Text":
		if type(LparamV[i]) == str:
			Sortie.append(LparamV[i])
		else:	
			Sortie.append(str(LparamV[i]))		
	else:
		Sortie.append(LparamV[i])
