Perform numeric operations, calculations, and conversions for data processing in automation workflows.

Overview​

The Number package provides essential numeric operations for RPA workflows. Use it when you need to perform calculations, generate random numbers, manipulate counters, or convert between number and string formats.

Key Features​

  • Assignment - Set numeric variable values
  • Arithmetic - Increment and decrement values
  • Random Numbers - Generate random numbers in range
  • Conversion - Convert numbers to strings

  • Decrement - Decrease a number by a specified amount
  • Random - Generate a random number within a range
  • To String - Convert a number to string format

When to Use This Package​

  • Counters: Track iteration counts in loops
  • Calculations: Perform arithmetic operations
  • Random Data: Generate random test data
  • Formatting: Convert numbers for display or output

Typical Workflow​

  1. Assign to initialize a counter or value
  2. Increment / Decrement in loops
  3. To String when outputting to text
