{{DISPLAYTITLE:_MEMPUT}}
|
|
The '''_MEMPUT''' statement writes data to a portion of a designated memory block at an OFFSET position.
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{PageSyntax}}
|
|
::: '''_MEMPUT''' ''memory_block'', ''byte_position'', ''source_variable'' [AS ''type'']
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{Parameters}}
|
|
* ''memory block'' is a [[_MEM]] variable type memory block name created by [[_MEMNEW]] or the [[_MEM (function)|_MEM]] function.
|
|
* ''byte_position'' is the ''memory block.[[OFFSET]]'' start position plus any bytes needed to read specific values.
|
|
* The ''source variable'' type designates the size and ''byte position'' it should be written to. It can be a variable, [[arrays|array]] or user defined type.
|
|
* The ''source variable'' can be converted [[AS]] a specific variable ''[[TYPE|type]]'' before being written to the ''memory block offset'' as bytes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
''Usage:''
|
|
* The _MEMPUT statement is similar to the [[PUT]] file statement, but the ''byte position'' is required.
|
|
* The memory block name.[[OFFSET]] returns the starting byte position of the block. Add bytes to move into the block.
|
|
* The variable type held in the memory block can determine the next ''byte position'' to write a value.
|
|
* [[LEN]](variable) can determine the byte size of numerical or user defined variable [[type]]s irregardless of the value held.
|
|
* [[STRING]] values should be of a defined length. Variable length strings can actually move around in memory and not be found.
|
|
|
|
|
|
''Example:'' _MEMPUT can be used just like [[POKE]] without [[DEF SEG]].
