BASIC commands
3.2.5
^ (Power)
/i
Type
Mathematical function
Syntax
expression_1 ^ expression_2
Description
The power operator ^ raises expression_1 to the power of expression_2.
This operation uses floating point algorithms and may give small deviations for
integer calculations.
Arguments
•
expression_1
A BASIC expression.
•
expression_2
A BASIC expression.
Example
result = 2^5
This assigns the value 32 to variable result.

3.2.6
= (Is equal to)
/i
Type
Mathematical function
Syntax
expression1 = expression2
Description
The operator = returns TRUE if expression1 is equal to expression2, other-
wise it returns FALSE.
Arguments
•
expression1
Any valid BASIC expression.
•
expression2
Any valid BASIC expression.
Example
IF a = 10 THEN GOTO label1
If variable a contains a value equal to 10, program execution continues at
label label1. Otherwise, program execution continues with the next statement.

= (Assignment)
/i
Type
Mathematical function
Syntax

3.2.8
<> (Is not equal to)
/i
Type
Mathematical function
Syntax
expression1 <> expression2
Description
The operator <> returns TRUE if expression1 is not equal to expression2,
otherwise it returns FALSE.
Arguments
•
expression1
Any valid BASIC expression.
•
expression2
Any valid BASIC expression.
Example
IF a <> 10 THEN GOTO label1
If variable a contains a value not equal to 10, program execution continues at
label label1. Otherwise, program execution continues with the next state-
ment.
