Fixed *Expression editor...how to insert a word

Thunder_Child

I have two variable integers. How many were chosen and the minimum needed to be chosen. Basically i am needing to do this.... 5 of 9 or like this 5/9

Obviously I can't put the / character in there as it is a math value but I'm sure there's a way to make it a typed character bs math symbol.

For some reason I tried this but it didn't work.

Game.noOfchosen../..game.minNeeded

Any help in the right direction would be great !

Thank you

Oh uh I think it may be as simple as putting in quotations. I'll try that. Duh !

Correct, so just type Game.noOfchosen.."/"..game.minNeeded

All text goes in quotes in an expressin.

You can also put the word(s) in a table and then call the appropriate cell where needed. May be longer but could be easier to edit later on.
