pascalated boriel zx basic for the spectrum (*solved*) - funkheld - 12-31-2024
Hello, good day.
will the tap program be faster with this new Pascal or is it just an optical design for the eye?

Thanks.

unfortunately pascalated doesn't work with it anymore.
I've now checked this:
zxbasic-v1.18.0-beta6-win32.zip 12263 Kb 2024/Dec/20 00:38:30
as there are always new changes in zxbasic.
I will use zxbasic without pascalated.
there are new faster ASM routines in zxbasic.
thanks.

What do you mean it does not work with ZXBasic anymore?
There hasn't been incompatible changes in ZX Basic for a long time. It should still work as always.

Yes, the v1.18.0-beta6 have problems.
Some Pascalated BASIC programs may not compile.
I got this error:

Pascalated BASIC was created to simplify the appearance of the program.
It's best for beginners.
But in the hands of beginners the code becomes slower...
RE: pascalated boriel zx basic for the spectrum - boriel - 01-02-2025
This is obviously a compiler bug for the 1.8.x series. I'll have a look into it.
Thanks for reporting it! :-)
EDIT: If you could provide a failing code snippet, please do. I will fix the bug much faster.

The following code works fine on version 17. but aborts the compiler on version 18.
Code:
#define PROGRAM REM
#define BEGIN REM
#define VAR DIM
#define INTEGER LONG
#define REAL FLOAT
#define CHAR STRING ' UBYTE is type integer
#define BOOLEAN UBYTE
#define TYPE AS
#define REPEAT DO
#define UNTIL LOOP UNTIL
#define PROCEDURE SUB
#define TRUNC INT
#define SQRT SQR
CONST TRUE TYPE BOOLEAN = 1
CONST FALSE TYPE BOOLEAN = 0
PROGRAM Longest Bridge
' CONSTant declarations
CONST Period TYPE INTEGER = 4
' VARiables
VAR CLICK TYPE INTEGER ' clicks de relogio
'-------------------------------------------------------------------
PROCEDURE PrintClock
VAR steps TYPE REAL
VAR TotalMinutes TYPE REAL
VAR min,sec TYPE UBYTE
VAR aux TYPE REAL
BEGIN
steps = 20
TotalMinutes = CLICK/steps
min = INT TotalMinutes
'sec = INT (60.0/100.0*(TotalMinutes-min))
aux = 60.0/100.0
aux = aux*(1E-4+TotalMinutes-min)
sec = INT (100*aux)
PRINT AT 8,14;PAPER 5;min;":";
IF sec<10 THEN PRINT PAPER 5;"0";
PRINT PAPER 5;sec;
END PROCEDURE

Please try this new beta version, and let me know if it works, thanks :-)
