Re: Using two sprinti calls in one string

Hi Ciara,

If that is the exact code you have in your script, you have two problems.
First, you should also always use i in the format string of sprinti,
regardless of the variable you are using. You should also add a + after
your first sprinti call to ensure proper concatenation of the strings
(although it seems to have worked partially without that +, which is
interesting). The end of your string should look more like this:

sprinti("%0.4i",i) + " / " + sprinti("%0.4i",j)

See examples 2 and 3 on the sprinti page for more guidance.
