STRING 2085 IMPROVED

Top  Previous  Next

Action

Returns a string consisting of m repetitions of the character with ASCII Code n.

 

 

Syntax

var = STRING(m ,n)

 

 

Remarks

Var

The string that is assigned.

N

The ASCII-code that is assigned to the string.

M

The number of characters to assign. This must be a number > 0

 

Since a string is terminated by a 0 byte, you can't use 0 for n. That is you could but the result would be an empty string.

Using 0 for x will not alter the resulting string.

 

STRING supports $BIGSTRINGS

$regfile = "m48def.dat"                                   ' specify the used micro

$crystal = 8000000                                         ' used crystal frequency

$baud = 19200                                               ' use baud rate

$hwstack = 32                                               ' default use 32 for the hardware stack

$swstack = 40                                               ' default use 10 for the SW stack

$framesize = 40                                             ' default use 40 for the frame space

 

 

Dim S As String * 15

S = String(5 , 65)
