mokwalo

Converts a number or a nnete/maaka value into text.

mokwalo(123) is "123" — a number you could count with is now text you can join to other text with +.

Note: converting nnete or maaka gives the text "true" or "false" in English. It is JavaScript itself that writes that value out, not Bopa — so do not expect "nnete" in the resulting text.

Given a list, it returns a list of strings.

Syntax

mokwalo(boleng)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
boleng	sengwe	A number, text, or nnete/maaka. A list of those is also accepted.

Examples

Join a number onto text

tiro setaLoeto() {
  thalaKanefase(400, 400);
  bokamorago(220);
  tlogelaMothalo();

  diri bogolo = 150;
  diri boleng = mokwalo(bogolo) + " diphikisele";

  kwala(boleng);

  tlatsaMmala(140, 60, 180);
  kgolokwe(200, 200, bogolo);
}

nnete becomes the English "true"

tiro setaLoeto() {
  thalaKanefase(400, 400);
  bokamorago(220);
  tlogelaMothalo();

  diri boleng = mokwalo(nnete);
  kwala(boleng);
  kwala(boleng === "true");

  tlatsaMmala(0, 170, 120);
  thalaKhutlonne(80, 150, 240, 100);
}
