Sorry for the necropost, but I need to figure out how to get a number in a list stored to a string variable. Anyone have any ideas?

It's not simple, but here are two ways:
http://tibasicdev.wikidot.com/number-to-string
http://tibasicdev.wikidot.com/number-to-string2 (I prefer this one because it doesn't use up as many variables, although it does take longer)

Sooo.... Since it's been a while, I think that I'm ready to take on the behemoth of a project once more (and learn Asm for the CE.). First, I need to create a database of MTG cards.
I will be using the Gatherer, which is a (almost) complete database.
I have (relatively) 3 simple steps:
Question 1 of many:
Kerm, how would I go about creating a server/database, something that Calcnet can access? Would I need to host it on something? Or could I get away with creating a website to store all of it on?Is it ok that I'm scared of Asm? Cause I think I am.
EDIT: Does the webpage that the program will access have to written a certain way? It would make sense if it had to be written a certain way, but I don't even know where to start.
About the database, I have something that could simplify it.
For each card, I will generate a serial number. It'll be something like this:
Example card: Magosi Sphinx
The first few digits will be the name. In this case, each letter will become what place it is in the alphabet, like a would be 1, b would be 2, and so on, like so. (The x represents a space)
141715199x1916891424
The next few digits would be abilities, in this order:
Code:
Now obviously, I can;t do every single one of these abiliteis. That would take way too long, and I would never get it done. I will, however, do the abilites that I know. Which is most of this list. It will be a serial number; if it has the ability, there will be a 1 in that spot, and if not, a zero. Basically binary.
What I am thinking of doing is making data packs, like one would contain all of the basic abilities, such as trample, deathtouch, first strike, double strike, etc. ,and have people download that to play with. This way, you aren't downloading massive appvars to your calculator and taking all of your RAM/Arc up. If you want to have more abilities, download more packs.
What is your opinion? What abilities should be in the first pack, so I can start working on those?
EDIT: I will be making serial numbers for the cards in Standard right now. Only about 1716 cards that I have to do. Yay.

I have (relatively) 3 simple steps:
- Create something that GlobalCalcNet can access
- Create a program that can link to said server/webpage so you can download what cards you want
- Create the program using ASM
