BASIC PROGRAMMING SECTION IJ.3
IJ,3.2.2 Double Precision
Double Precision arrays are i ndentified by the symbol '!'
followed by a number or expression in parentheses. Double
precision variables have 11J digit accuracy,
e.g. A1 !(19),Z!(Z),C!(X),AA!(23)
These are a further 962 arrays.
Each double precision element occupies 9 bytes of HUNTER memory.

Default Values
IJ.3.3
VER.V09F
All numeric arrays default to 11 elements unless dimensioned
with DIM statement.
STRING STORAGE
Single element string arrays are automatically assigned without
a DIM statement. The default length is 20 characters.
String names are defined exactly as variable names, with one
alphabetic character (A-Z) and one optional alphanumeric
character (A-Z,0-9) followed by the '$' symbol giving a total of
962 separately identified string variables.
HUNTER supports strings of 8 bit characters including the full
ASCII character set.
The maximum length of any string is 254 characters, with a
default size of 20 characters.
DIM A1$(10, 15)
defines a string array of 11 elements, each of which can be up
to 15 characters long.
The maximum size of an array depends on the memory available.
Examples of String variables are:
A1$,Z$,C5$(22),H$(J),MM$(32)
String variables can be initialised using LET, just assigned
using :(equate), or READing from DATA statements.
