The BYTE menu
The BYTE menu, available through the BASE (‚ã) provides the following
functions:
Functions RLB, SLB, SRB, RRB, contained in the BIT menu, are used to
manipulate bits in a binary integer. The definition of these functions are shown
below:
RLB: Rotate Left one byte, e.g., #1100b #110000000000b
SLB: Shift Left one byte, e.g., #1101b #110100000000b
SRB: Shift Right one byte, e.g., #11011b #0b
RRB: Rotate Right one byte, e.g., #1101b
#1101000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
00000000000b
Hexadecimal numbers for pixel references
Many plot option specifications use pixel references as input, e.g., { #332h
#A23h } #Ah 0. 360. ARC, to draw an arc of a circle. We use functions
CPX and PXC to convert quickly between user-unit coordinates and pixel
references. These functions can be found through the command catalog
(‚N).
