Remove zeros from a number

Hi,

I want to preform calculations with a number excluding the zeros. The number is entered in a textbox so it's totally random.

for example, the user enters 2000, so can I extract 2 from this? Or say user enters 100000, can I extract only the non zero digit?

Thanks,

Rana

Just get the edit box contents and set the 0's to nulls:

editBoxContents = handles.edit1.String;
editBoxContents(editBoxContents == '0') == []

If you want the number, just add

theNumber = str2double(editBoxContents);
