CHAPTER

Programming
with
BASIC
Language
The DEFM command cannot only be used in manual operation
but
can also be
used in a program.
For
example,
if
we wish
to
use array variables Z
(0)
to
Z
(20)
in a program and assign a numeric value J
to
Z (J), the program can be created
as
follows.
Example:
10
DEFM
20
··
·20
variables are expanded.
20
FOR
J=0
TO
30
Z(J)=J
40
NEXT
J
20
l
Numeric values are assigned
to
the array
variables.
*When the DEFM command
is
used in a program, the number
of
variables
wi~l
not
be displayed when executed.
The DEFM command
is
also used
to
display the current number
of
variables.
DEFM only will be executed in this instance.
I
°'""
""MO
A·
.
z:
26
M~CiEFM:
20
*When
"DEFM"
only
is
used in a program, the number
of
variables will be dis-
played when executing the program.
Notes:
1.
If
the
variables are expanded,
that
specification will be saved even when the
power
is
turned
off. Execute DEEM 0
to
return
to
the
standard
26
variables.
*The
variables will return
to
the
standard
26
if
NEW
ALL~
is
operated in
the
WRT mode or
if
changed over
to
the DIM mode.

2.
If
the number
of
bytes used
to
expand
the
variables
is
specified in excess
of
the remaining free area, a MEMORY OVER error (Error 1) will occur
to
protect
the stored programs and data.
