CipherLab BASIC Programming Part I
PRINT
Purpose To display data on the LCD.
Syntax PRINT expression[{,|;[expression]}]
Remarks “expression” may be numeric or string expression.
The position of each printed item is determined by the punctuation used to
separate items in the list.
In the list of expression, a comma causes the next character to be printed
after the last character with a blank space, and a
next character to be printed immediately after the last character.
If the list of expressions terminates without a comma or semicolon, a
carriage return is printed at the end of the line.
Example
LOCATE 1, 1
PRINT String$(20, “”)
LOCATE 1, 1
A = 5
PRINT A, “square is ”; A*A
‘ clear the whole line
