Splitting up bytes question

[ERMEGM]

Use hexadecimal notation??

For your example, store 54 hex at the byte location.

In my example, it would work until you get to 11 on the first number and say 2 on the second number. How would it store with 112? It could mean 11 and 2 or 1 and 12.

PBP does not have tools to make working with nibbles easier, but you can certainly do it yourself by shifting right and left.

Getting back to my first question, if I use the code: WRITE 15, does it get stored as 1111 or 15? Just trying to see if I have to use if..then commands to translate the bits to numbers and vice-versa. The numbers will be used by the gosub command, so if 112 get's stored it must mean 11 and 2 and not 1 and 12.

Dave,

I will have to look into yours. Half of it makes sense, but I'm trying to interpret what the commands actually mean. Once I understand that, the rest will be easy.

I guess I need the above question answered first, and then I can try to implement the above suggestions by having a clearer understanding.

Thanks,
Tony
