Strings to integers?
Hi,

I'm totally new at this, so help will be appreciated.

I have a directory with a bunch of files in it. The files are named xinteger_yinteger_zinteger.vtk (eg, x3_y0_z-1.vtk). I want to read the filenames and then assign the integers to variables that I then can use in expressions. So, for x3_y0_z-1.vtk, I want to assign xvariable=3, yvariable=0, zvariable-1.

I assume that I have to use one command to assign a filename to a string and then something like printf to parse the string. But that's as far as I've gotten.

Help?

Thanks!
