26 Character String Control – FNC200 to FNC209
26.5 FNC204 – RIGHT / Extracting Character String Data from the Right
Explanation of function and operation
1. 16-bit operation (RIGHT and RIGHTP)
“n” characters are extracted from the right end (that is, from the end) 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 (00H) 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 a device next to the device
storing the last character.
• A character string stored in
and later indicates data stored in devices from the specified device until
"00H" is first detected in units of byte.
Cautions
When handling character codes other than ASCII codes, note the following contents:
• The number of characters is handled in units of byte (8 bits). Accordingly, in the case of character codes in
which 2 bytes express 1 character such as shift JIS codes, the length of 1 character is detected as “2”.
• When extracting characters from a character string including character codes in which 2 bytes express 1
character such as shift JIS codes, consider the number of characters to be extracted in units of character
codes for 1 character.
Note that the expected character code is not given if only 1 byte is executed out of a 2-byte character code.
