Variables are values which can be manipulated. They are
referenced using names composed of letters, numbers, and character "_". These
reference names cannot contain most other symbols because such symbols are part
of the ARMbasic programming language. They also cannot contain
spaces.
32-bit signed
whole-number data type. Can hold values from -2147483648 to 2147483647.
Single variables can hold positive and negative
numbers 0, 1.0000E-39 to 1.0000E+38. Within this range there are 7
significant digits.
Variables are declared
automatically on first use. A DIM statement is not required, but can be
used. Once a simple variable is declared using a DIM,
then all following variables must be declared that way
.
Only the first 32 characters of a variable name are
used, beyond that they are truncated. Also names are not case sensitive.
