String size is defined by the
CR3000 operating system and
CRBasic program.
When converting from STRING
to FLOAT, numerics at the
beginning of a string convert, but
conversion stops when a non-
numeric is encountered. If the
string begins with a non-numeric,
the FLOAT will be NAN. If the
string contains multiple numeric
values separated by non-numeric
characters, the SplitStr()
instruction can be used to parse
out the numeric values. See the
sections String Operations
(p. 327)
and Serial I/O
(p. 303).
.
Unless declared otherwise, string size
is 24 bytes or characters. String size is
allocated in multiples of four bytes; for
example, String * 25, String * 26,
String * 27, and String * 28 allocate
28 bytes (27 usable). Minimum string
size is 4 (3 usable). See CRBasic
Editor Help for more information.
Maximum length is limited only by
available CR3000 memory. As a
special case, a string can be declared as
String * 1. This allows the efficient
storage of a single character. The string
will take up 4 bytes in memory and
when stored in a data table, but it will
hold only one character.
Data Type Declarations
'This program example demonstrates various data type declarations.
'Data type declarations associated with any one variable occur twice: first in a Public
'or Dim statement, then in a DataTable/EndTable segment. If not otherwise specified, data
'types default to floating point: As Float in Public or Dim declarations, FP2 in data
'table declarations.

Public Z
Public X As Float
