title: Pascal integer to string conversion
body: <p>Is there a built in function that converts integers to strings in Free Pascal, as in returns a string object of the integer input? I've scowered the Google and the docs for 2 hours now and have found nothing but false hope and disappointment. Using Lazarus 1.4.4 on Windows 10.</p>
  
  <p>Also, why is pascal so complex/aggravating? There are tons of versions, IDEs, application support vs not application support, and the docs are mediocre at best (at least for Free Pascal, although Delphi's doesn't look too good at a glance either). It's so all over the place, it's like a giant tangled pair of earbuds.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you!</p>
