Deallocating Array Space
Array space may be deallocated using the DA command followed by the array name. DA*[0]
deallocates all the arrays.
Input of Data (Numeric and String)
Input of Data
The command, IN, is used to prompt the user to input numeric or string data. Using the IN
command, the user may specify a message prompt by placing a message in quotations. When the
controller executes an IN command, the controller will wait for the input of data. The input data is
assigned to the specified variable or array element.
