Indirectly Addressing Variables and Labels
Indirect addressing is a technique used in advanced programming to specify a
variable or label without specifying beforehand exactly which one. This is
determined when the program runs, so it depends on the intermediate results (or
input) of the program.
Indirect addressing uses four different keys: 0, 7, 1 , and A.
These keys are active for many functions that take A through Z as variables or
labels.
I and J are variables whose contents can refer to another variable. It holds a
number just like any other variable (A through Z).
(I) and (J) are programming functions that directs, "Use the number in I or J to
determine which variable or label to address."
This is an indirect address. (A through Z are direct addresses.)
Both 0 and 7 are used together to create an indirect address and this applies to
both 1 and A as well.
By itself, (I) or (J) is either undefined (no number in (I) or (J)) or uncontrolled (using
whatever number happens to be left over in I or J).
The Variables "I" and "J"
You can store, recall, and manipulate the contents of I or J just as you can the
contents of other variables. You can even solve for I,J and integrate using I or J . The
functions listed below can use variable "i"(the variable J is the same).
