Limiting integer to two numbers

Hi, I have a label in which I am printing an integer. I want to make it that no matter how many numbers you press only two numbers are printed, the last two inputted. Also the value of this number should be equal to what is printed. (Sort of like how you would input numbers into a timer...)

How do I do this?

Thanks!

I would convert the number to a string then substring it. only grabbing the last two numbers. After that, you can either leave it as a string, or convert it back to an integer..
