Without a prefix,
integer1
is treated as
decimal. The result is displayed in decimal,
regardless of the
Base
mode.
Define
CATALOG
Define
funcName
(
arg1Name, arg2Name, ...
) =
expression
Creates
funcName
as a user-defined function.
You then can use
funcName
()
, just as you use
built-in functions
.
The function evaluates
expression
using the supplied arguments and
returns the result.
funcName
cannot be the name of a system
variable or built-in function.
The argument names are placeholders; you
should not use those same names as
arguments when you use the function.
Note: This form of
Define
is equivalent to
executing the expression:
expression!funcName
(
arg1Name,arg2Name
)
.
This command also can be used to define
simple variables; for example, Define a=3.

Define
funcName
(
arg1Name, arg2Name, ...
) = Func
block
EndFunc
Is identical to the previous form of
Define
,
except that in this form, the user-defined
function
funcName
()
can execute a block of
multiple statements.
block
can be either a single statement or a
series of statements separated with the “:”
character.
block
also can include expressions
and instructions (such as
If
,
Then
,
Else
, and
For
). This allows the function
funcName
()
to
use the
Return
instruction to return a specific
result.
Note: It is usually easier to author and edit
this form of Function in the program editor
rather than on the entry line.

A binary number can have up to
32 digits. A hexadecimal number
can have up to 8.
