FIND_STRING This function searches through a string for a specified sequence of characters.
INTEGER FIND_STRING (CHAR STRING[ ], CHAR Seq[ ], INTEGER
Start)INTEGER FIND_STRING (WIDECHAR STRING[ ], WIDECHAR
Seq[ ], INTEGER Start)
Parameters:
• STRING: The string of character to search.
• Seq: The sequence of characters to search for.
• Start: The starting character position for the search.
Result:
A 16-bit unsigned integer representing the character location of Seq in STRING.
If the character string is found at the beginning of the string, this
function returns 1; any error condition returns 0.
POS = FIND_STRING(STRING, 'ABC', 1)
FIRST_LOCAL_PORT This keyword contains the lowest number that may be assigned as a local port
number. See the IP Communication section on page 189 for more information.
FLOAT This keyword defines an intrinsic data type representing a 32-bit signed
floating-point value.
FOR This keyword defines a FOR loop. The looping structure allows you to define ini-
tialization statements, statements to execute after each pass through the loop
and a condition to test after each pass. If the condition evaluates to true,
another pass is made; otherwise the loop is terminated.
FOR (<initial>; <condition>; <after pass>)
{
(* for loop statements *)
}
See the FOR loops section on page 18 for more information.
