ASSIGN STRING(S) TO BASIC VARIABLE(S) This routine is part of the BASIC INPUT command routine, and can be used to process input obtained from CALLing one of the keyboard input routines at 1BB3B, 0361H, etc. On entry, BC must point to the first character of a string that contains the variable name(s) (if more than one variable name is used the names must be separated by commas, and a zero byte or colon must be placed after the last variable name). HL must point to the byte just prior to the beginning of the input string ( this is where it is placed by the above-mentioned input routines – note that this byte is altered by this routine), and the string may contain input for more than one variable (items must be separated by commas). String must be terminated with zero byte. On exit, the numbers or strings in the input will be assigned to the variables listed in the string containing the variable names. Numeric or string variables may be used, but only valid characters for numeric input may be used with numeric variables ( depending on how certain flags are set, a “?REDO” message or an error will occur if this rule is violated. To force the “?REDO” message, make sure that memory location 40DEH contains zero, and that location 40A9H contains a non-zero value. To determine if the “?REDO” message has occured, prior to calling the routine load memory locations 40E6H-40E7H with zero. If the HL register pair contains zero on exit, then an error has occured and the “?REDO” message has been printed). NOTE: For proper operation, the input string should be in the BASIC input buffer (as it will be if one of the input routines mentioned above is used) when this routine is CALLed. See chapter one of this book for information on the INPUT routine located at 21C9H.

EVALUATE EXPRESSION AT (HL) Evaluate BASIC string expression (may include constants, BASIC variables, BASIC functions, operators, etc.) and place result in ACCUM ( also set NTF). On entry, HL must point to first character of the string to be evaluated. On exit, HL will point to the string delimiter, which must be an acceptable BASIC expression terminator (such as a zero byte, a colon, a right parenthesis, etc.). NOTE: This routine may be entered at 2335H, in which case the HL register pair MUST point to a left parenthesis (which precedes the expression to be evaluated) or a BASIC syntax error will result. This routine assumes that BASIC is operational – result may be unpredictable if this is not the case.

LOCATE OR CREATE A BASIC VARIABLE This routine will locate the storage area in memory for an existing BASIC variable, or will assign a storage area for the specified variable if one does not presently exist. On entry, the HL register pair must point to the first character of the variable name. On exit, HL will point to the next character following the variable name, and DE will contain the address of the variable storage area ( same as would be returned in BASIC VARPTR function). NOTE: If the variable name does not contain a type declaration character ( !, %, #,or $ as the final character of the variable name), the variable will be set to the precision as defined by the variable type declaration table at 4101H through 411AH. This table is organized so that location 4101H contains a the variable type flag for variables that begin with the letter “A”, 4102H contains the flag for variables that start with “B”, 4103H contains the flag for variables starting with 91 C”, and so on. The flag digits are defined in the same manner as the NTF (integer= 2, string= 3, single= 4, double= 8). All table locations are set to 4 ( single precision) on power-up and when the BASIC RUN or CLEAR commands are executed. The table values are altered through use of the BASIC DEF commands (such as DEFINT, DEFSNG, DEFDBL, or DEFSTR).
