System Library

• String Functions:

  Allows searching, merging, and editing text. String functions simplify text manipulation in your application.

• Math Functions:

  Performs basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and more complex calculations.

• Input-Output Functions:

  Functions for managing input-output operations with message windows.

• Date and Time Functions:

  Provides functions to retrieve the current date and time, format dates, and manage time-related operations.

• Conversion Functions(Type Conversions):

  Type Converts data types, such as converting a number to a string.

There is a library that is included by default in all scripting components, this library is SystemLibrary. Adds frequently used procedures and functions such as ShowMessage and IntToStr to the script.
