    Can i know what is the meaning of Poke command?
    Poke is a PBC statement (still usable in PBP) who write to a specific register.

    POKE PORTB, 10

    will write 10 to PORTB

    In PBP, you may reduce it to
    PORTB=0
    add a semicolon at the end of the line and it's in C

    // is the modulus.
    PBP performs 16x16 division. The '/' operator returns the 16-bit result. The '//' operator returns the remainder. This is sometimes referred to as the modulus of the number.

    Example

    W1 = W0 / 1000 ‘ Divide value in W0 by 1000 and place the result in W1
    W2 = W0 // 1000 ‘ Divide value in W0 by 1000 and place the remainder in W2

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
