Action

Send output to the RS-232 port.

Writes a string to a file.

Syntax

PRINT var ; " constant"

Remarks

You can use a semicolon (;) to print more than one variable at one line.

When you end a line with a semicolon, no linefeed will be added.

The PRINT routine can be used when you have a RS-232 interface on your uP.

The RS-232 interface can be connected to a serial communication port of your computer.

This way you can use a terminal emulator as an output device.

You can also use the build in terminal emulator.

The AVR-DOS filesystem also supports PRINT. But in that case, only strings can be written to disk.

Example

'--------------------------------------------------------------
' (c) 1999-2000 MCS Electronics
'--------------------------------------------------------------
' file: PRINT.BAS
' demo: PRINT, HEX
'--------------------------------------------------------------
Dim A As Byte , B1 As Byte , C As Integer , S As String * 4
A = 1
Print "print variable a " ; A
Print 'new line
Print "Text to print." 'constant to print


B1 = 10
Print Hex(b1) 'print in hexa notation
C = &HA000 'assign value to c%
Print Hex(c) 'print in hex notation
Print C 'print in decimal notation

C = -32000
Print C
Print Hex(c)
Rem Note That Integers Range From -32767 To 32768
