ok i see this but CStr(-19776) output is it a string?
for example i think there is difference between DIM sVar1="-19776" AS String DIM iVar2=-19776 AS Integer why Gambas re-convert a string to integer again when see a + operator? The statement PRINT CStr(-19776) + CStr(-19776) should be equal to PRINT ("-19776" + "-19776") and raise an error, strings cannot be sumed. This function of Gambas seems to reconvert strings to numbers with + operator. Should be this happend?
