* The ''stringvalue$'' can be any string of [[ASCII]] characters as a [[STRING]] variable.
* The ''numberofcharacters'' [[INTEGER]] value determines the number of characters to return from the right end of the string.
{{PageDescription}}
* If the number of characters exceeds the string length([[LEN]]) the entire string is returned.
* RIGHT$ returns always start at the last character of the string, even if a space. [[RTRIM$]] can remove ending spaces.
* '''Number of characters cannot be a negative value.'''
''Example 1:'' Getting the right portion of a string value such as a person's last name.
{{CodeStart}}
name$ = "Tom Williams"
Last$ = {{Cl|RIGHT$}}(name$, {{Cl|LEN}}(name$) - {{Cl|INSTR}}(name$, " ")) 'subtract space position from string length
{{Cl|PRINT}} Last$
{{CodeEnd}}
{{OutputStart}}Williams {{OutputEnd}}
''Example 2:'' Adding the leading zero in single digit [[HEX$]] values using RIGHT to take the right two hexadecimal string digits.
{{CodeStart}}
{{Cl|SCREEN}} {{Cl|_NEWIMAGE}}(640, 480, 32) '32 bit screen modes ONLY!
red = 255
green = 0
blue = 128
Color32 red, green, blue
{{Cl|PRINT}} "Colored text"
{{Cl|SUB}} Color32 (R, G, B)
R = R {{Cl|AND (boolean)|AND}} {{Cl|&H}}FF: G = G {{Cl|AND (boolean)|AND}} {{Cl|&H}}FF: B = B {{Cl|AND (boolean)|AND}} {{Cl|&H}}FF ' limit values to 0 to 255
: ''Note:'' When a single hexadecimal digit is returned the resulting value will need the leading zero added. Otherwise the hexa- decimal value created will have a byte missing from the value. EX: Color &HFF000000 is valid while &HFF000 is not.
