examine string

[aratti]

I don't see any way to work with strings in PBP.
I have strings such as "11000011", I need to look at each position and if it is a 1 do something
and if it is a zero do something else. Also, what is PBPL?

The following simple snippet will solve your problem.

My_Byte = "11000011"

For B0 = 0 to 7

If My_Byte0.[B0] = 1 then DO SOMETHING
Else
DO SOMETHING ELSE
endif

Next B0

Cheers

Al.

PBPL allows you to use LONG type variables, 32 bit numbers. LONGS can only be used with 18Fxxx chips and was a new feature with PBP 2.50.

I can't get this to work, I fixed what I thought where some typo's but not sure how to define this, it doesn't like the quotation marks.

The following simple snippet will solve your problem.

My_Byte = "11000011"

For B0 = 0 to 7

If My_Byte0.[B0] = 1 then DO SOMETHING
Else
DO SOMETHING ELSE
endif

Next B0
