You may need to rephrase this whole question because certainly nobody
will understand it. I don't understand it at least. As ${aNumber} will
be replaced in the output with a character sequence, the value of
aNumber will be converted to string without asking. If you want to
convert a number to a string inside a more complex expression, like in
${iNeedAString(aNumber)}, then you should write aNumber?c or
aNumber?string, depending on whether you want "computer audience" or
"human audience" formatting. See:
