Syntax Conventions
The command lines (blocks) used in programming include commands, symbols,
variables, functions and/or arguments.
A particular syntax is used for each of the elements described herein. The applicable
syntax rules describe how to write the programme blocks.
Certain syntaxes are given on one or more lines. Writing is simplified by use of the
following conventions:
- the functionality(ies) to which the syntax relates is (are) highlighted by the use of
bold face characters,
- «..» or lower case letters after one or more capital letters, addresses or signs
replace a numerical value (e.g. N..),
- the ellipsis «...» replaces a character or address string similar to that preceding it
in the block (e.g. [Symb1]/[Symb2]...),
- «xx» after one or more address letters replaces alphanumeric characters (e.g.
[.IBxx(i)]),
- «xxx» after an address letter replaces numerical values (e.g. Gxxx).
