Explanation of function and operation
1. 16-bit operation (LEFT and LEFTP)
“n” characters are extracted from the left end (that is, from the head) of the character string data stored in and
later and stored to and later.
If the number of characters specified by “n” is “0”, the NULL code (0000H) is stored to .
When characters are extracted from a character string, "00H” is automatically added at the end of the extracted
characters.
- When the number of extracted characters is odd, “00H” is stored in the high-order byte of a device storing the
last character.
- When the number of extracted characters is even, “0000H” is stored in the device after the last character.
