[stephane fonteyne]

Hey Tom or Lance,

Can you with the comment SHIFT LEFT|RIGHT both operations
(logic and Atrithemetic) the same for ROTATE?

I found this statement very usefull for procesprogramming and it work very and very
Are there statements for SET, RESET en TEST BIT, wich?

Kind regards
Stephane

All PowerBASIC compiler offer ROTATE, SHIFT and BIT (set/reset/toggle) statement and bit test functions.

They are also described in the documentation for each compiler.

Thanks!

It's on the list of additions for PB/DOS. In the mean time, use this simple function:

PRINT ZeroHex$(65535&,8)
 
FUNCTION ZeroHex$(BYVAL Var&, BYVAL Digits%)
  FUNCTION = RIGHT$(STRING$(Digits%, "0") + Hex$(Var&), Digits%)
END FUNCTION
