[gradsusr] How to convert a string to a real number?

[Murphy, Darren W]

I¹d like to second this question.  I am having the same issue.  I think the
Grads literature says that some commands can use a number as a string for
calculations.  However, when I try and use my number ³string²  in a max or
min Grads function, it throws an error.

Thanks,
Darren
