Need help with Sim908 GPS code

Hello friends,

I am building a SIM908 GPS module with SMS control.

The problem i am facing is i need to convert deg min.min latidude to deg decimal.

I have the formula but dont know how to put it in the code

This is what the GPS sends 4,1234.123456,N,7890.123456,E,123123.000,A,A

I can receive it and resend it as it is with the below code but i need some maths to be done before sending.

eg: 1234.123456 div by 100 = 12.34123456

Once i have this i need to divide the numbers on the right of the decimal by 60

eg: 34123456 div by 60 = 568724.266666

now i want this number to be sent out 12.568724

How can i do it below is my code.

I have the formula but dont know how to put it in the code

This is what the GPS sends 4,1234.123456,N,7890.123456,E,123123.000,A,A

I can receive it and resend it as it is with the below code but i need some maths to be done before sending.

eg: 1234.123456 div by 100 = 12.34123456

Once i have this i need to divide the numbers on the right of the decimal by 60

eg: 34123456 div by 60 = 568724.266666

now i want this number to be sent out 12.568724

hi,
Ref our Chat,
1234.123456,,, say d(1)='1' and d(2)='2' are in the array [also d(5)='.' ;;save as is.

Assign LONG WORD as say LW1 [ you will need the Oshonsoft 32bit Maths Option for this LONG]

For the part '34123456'
LW1 = d(3)*10,000,000 + d(4) *1,000,000 .... thru +d(10)

Divided LW1/60 to give 568724 [ the decimal part will be lost]
NOTE: the dividend will be Binary 8AD94h

Load this number into the COUNT2 = 08h, COUNT1= ADh, COUNT0= 94h
and then CALL the 24bin2ASC1 subr.

On Exit from the subr, these buffers will contain the ASCII value
DIGIT0 EQU 0X30 ; LSD DIGITAL CONVERSION
DIGIT1 EQU 0X31
DIGIT2 EQU 0X32
DIGIT3 EQU 0X33
DIGIT4 EQU 0X34
DIGIT5 EQU 0X35
DIGIT6 EQU 0X36
DIGIT7 EQU 0X37 ; MSD DIGITAL CONVERSION

Transmit via Serial d(1),d(2),d(5), DIGIT7 thru DIGIT0

This should be 12.568724

Hello

I got the 32bit Maths option, Floating point done.

i am lost with this part

NOTE: the dividend will be Binary 8AD94h

Load this number into the COUNT2 = 08h, COUNT1= ADh, COUNT0= 94h
and then CALL the 24bin2ASC1 subr.

How to load and call ?
