strings should not be used to save...period. Play another game and you'd loose all progress...L1-L9 should also not be used...

Err... L1-L6

and you could say... use a string and use a method to compress it into a list (it's not that hard

)

Would expr( work for RecallPic X:

"0123456789
expr("RecallPic"+sub(Ans,X+1,1

i'm assuming it will work with xlib's recall pic function though, real(3,X,0,1)

Yeah that should be just fine.

The reason it won't work with RecallPic is because RecallPic VAR doesn't work, it has to be a number.

CDI · « **Reply #38 on:** December 15, 2005, 12:09:00 am »

yeah, it dosen't work with like 70%+ of the commands you want it to work with

dysfunction · « **Reply #39 on:** December 15, 2005, 08:18:00 am »

It doesn't work for storing, for one thing:

c1-->

CODE

ec1
{1,2,3} -> expr("L"+"1")c2

ec2

Doesn't work.

that may make things a bit interesting

necro · « **Reply #41 on:** December 15, 2005, 10:40:00 am »

yep, it has problems with the -> command inside of strings, something the tios is finiky about

But expr("{1,2,3}->L1 one works...so sometimes things need to get very complicated to get the desired effect

tifreak · « **Reply #42 on:** December 15, 2005, 10:51:00 am »

Maybe we should just go through and list the commands that expr( doesn't like...?

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #43 on:** December 15, 2005, 02:06:00 pm »

and make a tutorial for undocumented tricks with expr(

there are still lot of stuff I dont know about BASIC I think

CDI · « **Reply #44 on:** December 16, 2005, 12:12:00 am »

Well...

StorePic
RclPic
UnArchive
Archive

those are the ones I really needed... but don't work
