Today I saw the one for (Development Guide:Text and Data Processing:How To:) "How to shuffle the items or lines in a container." Have you seen it?
sort items of myVar numeric by random(the number of items in myVar)
Brilliant! That is really amazing. A real work of art!
It's not exactly for new learners I guess, but that just shows the variety. How about this example of the many which are great for newbies:
"How to put text into a field"
You use the put command to put text into a field. For example, to put the text "Hello World" into a field named "My Field", use a statement like the following (in a handler or in the message box):
put "Hello World" into field "My Field"
To put text at the beginning of a field without disturbing the field's contents, use a statement like the following:
put "text" before field "Field"
To put the text at the end of the field, use a statement like the following:
put "text" after field "Field"
Good stuff! So the How To is good just like the Cookbook.
