str = sprintf("%s %s",x[0],x[1])
endfunction
x("Hello","World")
Addition of ignore result sections using the syntax below. An ignore result section allows you to add script code that may fail for whatever reason but the failure is not relevant to the scripts pass/fail result. Example:-.
ignoreresult
assert(1==0)
endignoreresult
Variables are only cleared when the script starts therefore leaving them available for viewing when a script completes. This should aid when debugging a script.
