Issue
Have you ever had situations when you give a phone number to the robot for voiceover, for example 89133912047, and it voices it as eighty-nine billion, one hundred thirty-three million ...?
Or you decide to voice the date, and the robot voices it like twenty, twenty-one, one, one?
This is because the robot does not know anything about the information you give it. It doesn't know that the set of numbers is a phone number or a date, not a long number.
To have it understand what kind of information it is, it needs to be told about it.
What types of data does the robot know
The robot can work with the following types of received information:
- Date. It will voice a variable with this type in the format of "January 1st", having received "01.01" from you
- The amount in rubles. It will voice a variable with this type in the format "Ten rubles", having received "10" from you
- Abbreviation., It will voice a variable with this type by letters "F.S.S.P.", having received "fssp" from you
- Phone number. It will voice a variable of this type according to the digits of the telephone number "Eight, nine hundred and thirteen, ..." having received from you "89133912047"
- Name or Patronymic / Text data. These 2 types do not differ from each other, the robot will simply reproduce the information that you give it.
Where to set the variable type
All global settings for the script are made in a round block of settings. You need the item "Variables".
- Open the settings block and scroll the settings items down;
2. Click on ‘Add variable’;
3. Specify the variable name and its type;
4. If you need to set the type for several variables, click on "Add variable" and repeat step 3.
Keep in mind that in the case when you somehow change a variable, for example: change its type, change its value, write it, etc., the name is written without braces. Let's say m_0
In cases when you simply work with a variable without changing it in any way, for example: you compare the value in it by condition, take its value, etc., the name is written in braces. Let's say{m_0}
Remember to save the script for the settings to apply!
