Dear Thunkers,
I’m building an app to convert text to number and after that this app will sum all numbers. For example: when users type to textbox: TEDDY, app will convert to 75443 and after that it will take a sum of 7+5+4+4+3 = 23. And display 23 in label.
Can you help me 
There’s a “sum of list” block. Once you split your word up and translate your letters to numbers, it’ll do the rest.
If you dont mind, please help send me the block. I have tried to use sum of list block but it doesn’t work
Can you post a screenshot of the blocks you’ve tried? That way we can help you fix the problem.
Dear,
This is my main screen
This is Local Database to convert
And this is block
When I type TEDDY to textbox, it will convert to 25447. But I don’t know how to take a sum 2+5+4+4+7 = 22.
Please help!
If I understand correctly, Label1’s Text value will be “25447” and you want to sum the digits to return 22.
These blocks will do that:
My dear,
Thanks for your support. I have build the blocks like that and show the return to label5’s text. But it not work.
This is block
And this is result. Label5 still is 0
you miscopied tatiang’s block.
change the block (see arrow) with <Label1’s text> . copy it from the statement before.
Right. The algorithm is:
Set the sum to zero
Loop through each digit of Label1's Text:
In Label1's Text (this is what you're missing), get the character at position i
Convert the character to a number
Add the number to the sum
