Anyway i just wwanted to know how can you extract numbers from strings ? my regular expressions need work. I tried using the binding operator but its not working the way i though that it would. i guess its more on the side of true or false and not dealing with the actual numbers. PLEASE HELP ME SOMEONE!!
