programming
practice
and
always initializing
your
variables
to
the
desired value,
you
will avoid
any
possible
confusion.
If
DIM
is
used
to
allocate
the
A( )
or
A$(
) arrays larger
than
26
elements,
there
are
certain
special
conditions
in
which an
error
can
cause
the
part
of
the
array
from
A(27)
or
A$(27)
on
to
become
inaccessible.
If
this
occurs,
it
is
necessary
to
redimension
the
array.
Expressions
An
expression
is
some
combination
of
variables,
constants,
and
operators
which can be evaluated
to
a single value. The
calculations
which
you
entered
in
Chapter
3
were
examples
of
expressions. Expressions are an intrinsic
part
of
BASIC programs.
For
example,
an
expression
might
be a
formula
that
computes
an answer
to
some
equation,
a
test
to
determine
the
relationship
between
two
quantities,
or
a
means
to
format
a
set
of
strings.
Numeric Operators
The
PC-3 has five
numeric
operators.
These are
the
arithmetic
operators
which
you
used
when
exploring
the
use
of
the
PC-3
as a
calculator
in
Chapter
3:
+
Addition
Subtraction
* Multiplication
/ Division
/\
Power
A
numeric
expression
is
constructed
in
the
same
way
that
you
entered
compound
calculator
operations.
Numeric
expressions
can
contain
any
meaningful
combination
of
numeric
constants,
numeric
variables, and
these
numeric
operators:
