floats from strings... duh! [message #4362]

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious... want to do the equivalent of a
C sscanf or atof on a string I've got in a PV~Wave program that has a
floating point number in string form.

Rather than write my own function to convert "1.234" to 1.234, is there a
way in the system to do it easily?

Thanks.

Pete.
