Converting integer to string

[StefanAlmighty]

Quick question. How can I convert an integer value to a string?

For example:

  
k = math.random(1,100) 
  

I want to convert k from an integer into a string. So if the value k is 41, then I want to convert it to "41".

Appreciated, thanks.

k = tostring(k)

Simply there are two lua functions,

1st = converting to number and 2nd = converting to string

tonumber 
tostring

To add onto what KariiM said, tostring() converts anything into a string.

local plr = getPlayerFromName("Noki") 
tostring(isPedOnGround(plr)) 

will return either "true" or "false"

tostring(getPlayerFromName("Noki")) 

will return a string with the player element of a player named 'Noki'

tostring() converts anything into a string

However, tonumber() will either return a number (float or integer) or nil if invalid arguments were passed

tonumber(dxGetStatus()) 

will return nil as you cannot convert a table to an integer

tonumber("12") 

will return 12 as an integer
