Syntax (DEF...=REP...)
Using a value with repetition
● During definition:
DEF <data type> <variable name>[<n>,<m>,<o>]=REP(<value>)
DEF <data type> <variable name>[<n>,<m>,<o>]=REP(<value>,
<number_array_elements>)
● During value assignment:
<variable name>[<n>,<m>,<o>]=REP(<value>)
DEF <data type> <variable
name>[<n>,<m>,<o>]=REP(<value>,<number_array_elements>)
Meaning
DEF:
<data type>:
<string length>:
<variable name>:
[<n>,<m>,<o>]:
<n>:
<m>:
<o>:
SET:
(<value1>,<value2>, etc.):
