hello, good day.

my THE SPECTRUM has arrived for 99 euros in Germany.

a great device.

I set it to spectrum maschine 128k.

my programs-128k from ZX Basic run wonderfully.
also the bank programs in ZX Basic for the 128k with the bank switching.

greetings

this interrupt ist ok with "THE SPECTRUM"
----------------------------------------------

Code:
' Example of the use of the IM2 library

' Including the IM2 library
#include "IM2.bas"

' We declare two variables to use inside IM2CallMyRoutine
' These variables must be global
' Time wasting counter
DIM im2_Counter AS UInteger
' Height of the horizon
DIM im2_Horizon AS UInteger = 400

' We call the subroutine Main
Main()

' - Main subroutine ---------------------------------------
SUB Main()
    CLS
    PRINT AT 23,0;"q - Up, a - Down, s - Stop";
    PRINT AT 0,0;"Height of the horizon:";
    ' We configure and start up the interruptions.
    IM2Start(@MyInterruptRoutine)

    ' Infinite loop
    DO
        ' Print the current horizon height
        PRINT AT 0,23;im2_Horizon;"  ";
        ' If we press "q", we raise the horizon.
        IF INKEY$ = "q" THEN
            ' We raise it as long as it is not 0
            IF im2_Horizon > 0 THEN
                ' Going up means less pause
                im2_Horizon = im2_Horizon - 1
            END IF
        ' Pressing "a" lowers the horizon.
        ELSEIF INKEY$ = "a" THEN
            ' Going down is to pause more
            im2_Horizon = im2_Horizon + 1
        ' Pressing "s" stops the interruptions.
        ELSEIF INKEY$ = "s" THEN
            IM2Stop()
            RETURN
        END IF
    LOOP
END SUB


' - This is our routine which is called at every interruption
' We can't do a lot of things inside

' not to dawdle too much...

    ' We wait to change from heaven to earth

  Declare an array type
Posted by: baltasarq - 11-22-2024, 11:51 AM - Forum: Help & Support - Replies (2)

How do you declare an array type? I supposed it should be easy to find in the docs, but didn't have any luck. For instance:

Code:
sub doThis(v as string?)
    print( v( 0 ) )
endsub
I'm certain it is not string() (I have tried that). I wonder if I have to use DIM again?
Thanks,

  Reading DATA
Posted by: baltasarq - 11-20-2024, 08:25 PM - Forum: ZX Basic Compiler - Replies (4)

Lo siento si esto ha sido preguntado antes, pero no lo he encontrado.

Dado un proc como este:


Code:
const NumLocs as ubyte = 2

'enum Exits
    const ExitNorth as ubyte = 0
    const ExitSouth as ubyte = 1
    const ExitEast as ubyte = 2
    const ExitWest as ubyte = 3
    const ExitUp as ubyte = 4
    const ExitDown as ubyte = 5
    const NumExits as ubyte = 6
'end enum

dim locDescs(NumLocs) as string
dim locExits(NumLocs, NumExits) as integer


sub init_locs()
    'locDescs( 0 ) = "El lugar del alunizaje. La vaina abierta y sin  " _
    '   + "contenido parece una triste parodia de ella misma. " _
    '   + "Un valle natural conduce al sur."
    'locDescs( 1 ) = "El lugar del alunizaje. La vaina abierta y sin  " _
    '   + "contenido parece una triste parodia de ella misma. " _
    '   + "Un valle natural conduce al sur."
   
    restore LocData
   
    for i = 0 to NumLocs - 1
        print "numloc i:", i
       
        ' Read the desc
        read locDescs( i )
        print "read numloc i: "; i; locDescs( i )
               
        ' Read the exits
        for j = 0 to NumExits - 1
            print "numloc i:"; i; " exit "; j
            read locExits(i, j)
            print "numloc i:"; i; " exit "; j; " = "; locExits(i, j)
            input a
        next
    next
   
    return
                     
    LocData:
    ' Loc 0 - Landing
    data "El lugar del alunizaje. La vaina abierta y sin  " _
      + "contenido parece una triste parodia de ella misma. " _
      + "Un valle natural conduce al sur."
    data -1, 1, -1, -1, -1, -1
   
    ' Loc 1 - Valley
    data "El lugar del alunizaje. La vaina abierta y sin  " _
      + "contenido parece una triste parodia de ella misma. " _
      + "Un valle natural conduce al sur."
    data 0, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1
end sub


El problema es el siguiente. Si descomento las primeras líneas y comento la línea
Code:
read locDescs( i )
y los data correspondientes, el programa parece que funciona. Pero si dejo el programa tal y como está, solo lee porquería en la posición i del vector locDescs, y el Speccy se reinicia. ¿No se pueden leer cadenas con READ? Según los docs, entiendo que sí...

Does anyone know of a discord server that features a Boriel Basic channel?
(I did a search on here and found one but the link has expired.)

Thanks

  Help with Book
Posted by: StevesGaming - 11-16-2024, 07:15 PM - Forum: Help & Support - Replies (4)

Hello, I just registered!

I bought the Boriel Basic book and I'm just on page 52 where it tells you about debugging and adding breakpoints.  but when I add a breakpoint and press F6 I get errors!

"Exception: could not find file C:\zxbasic\helloworld\helloworld.buildtemp.ic"

How do I fix this?   (note: running the code normally with F5 and it works fine)

Thanks
