...and lets you store your own, too!
You can store at compile time using hex. You can store/retrieve at execution time using decimal or hex.

Explain that one a bit. o_o

SirCmpwn · « **Reply #17 on:** March 23, 2010, 02:35:24 pm »

So, in your source code, you can define data in terms of hex, like so:
[0102030A
This is taken at compile time and placed into the binary.
You can also specify in your source code:
_E0A to use a hex digit or group of hex digits. You could also specify:
17 to use a decimal digit or group of decimal digits.

How would you retrieve that data?
A little more clarity is needed...

SirCmpwn · « **Reply #19 on:** March 23, 2010, 02:38:53 pm »

Hex:
_E0A->{GDB1}
{GDB1}->A ; A now equals ten

Decimal
10->{GDB1}
{GDB1}->A

You retrieve data by naming it. If you store 100 bytes of data to memory and name that location "Str1" then you can access the entire 100 bytes with {Str1} for the first byte, {1+Str1} for the second byte, {2+Str1} for the third byte, or even {N+Str1} for the N-1th byte. Same as how you would in BASIC do L1(N).

Ahh.
Thank you so much.
Clarity is truly refreshing.

It is a project I had on hold...

Until now...

lol nice ^^

weren't you supposed to finish Lemonade Tycoon in 24 hours, though?

*Prophet dive-tackles DJ
THE TRUTH MUST NOT BE KNOWN!
RAWR!

Yes, it was to be done in 48 HOURS.
But, a BSOD kicked my arse.
So... yeah...

LEMONADE TYCOON STILL WON GOLD!

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #24 on:** March 23, 2010, 04:48:15 pm »

aw that sucks about the BSOD

Glad you won though

meishe91 · « **Reply #25 on:** March 23, 2010, 05:47:31 pm »

So I just read this whole thing, what exactly is meant by "using bytes" and such?

@Prophet
Congrats on the win, what is BSOD though?

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #26 on:** March 23, 2010, 05:49:41 pm »

meishe91 · « **Reply #27 on:** March 23, 2010, 06:23:12 pm »

Ah, ya, that makes sense. That always sucks

Gale · « **Reply #28 on:** March 23, 2010, 06:47:04 pm »

my dad was the one who taught me that term (BSOD).. xD

Builderboy · « **Reply #29 on:** March 23, 2010, 06:58:26 pm »

Yeah there is often the misconception between bytes and numbers, and the thing is, Bytes are numbers!

In Axe there are two ways to represent a byte (number), in Hex or in Decimal. Hex is easy to store bytes in because it is closely related to binary, and yet Decimal is easy for programmers to write in because we live in base 10
