hey

i was wandering if it is possible to have say: "Lbl 5 and Lbl 5" in the same program
or would if stuff things up??
this is for CFX by the way

thanks

Huh? What do you want to achive with that?

[renjer]

Yup, I tried that before, by accident, the program somehow (randomly?)selects the first lbl 5 then goes to the second one. then I realized that I've been getting the wrong output and I renamed the label.
I was wondering, since the labels can only be named by letters,(Lbl Z), or by numbers (Lbl 4), or in special cases, lbl r and lbl theta, has anyone tried to name their labels like lbl 19 or lbl AA or lbl A1? How will that turn out?

hey

yeah ive tried to put Lbl AA etc but it doesnt work
pity

ive programmed this game and i discovered that it had Lbl 5 and Lbl 5 both in the same program, i havn't noticed anything wrong but there mite not be something coming up properly or something.

i would rename it but im not sure about which Goto goes to which and which to change

thanks

heh, as far as i can tell it selects the closest label to the goto. if you want additional programming tips search this forum for "Casio BASIC Tutorial"

you can only specify a lbl with one digit suffix, in other words A-Z, 0-9, r and Theata.

And if you say two Lbl 5 in the same program, you don't can do that you yant, the Goto 5 redirect to the first or the second by randomly.

If you want to have more Lbl that 38 (A-Z 0-9 tetha...) you can do a second program and in the second program you can do other Labels.

But when zou do a program, you needn't use Lbl and Goto if you want that the program no bug, because you must use in max the If, Do-LpWhile,...

[Mr_Sparkle]

i spose that it could be possible that the guy who programmed this game actually did it on purpose.
ohh well
i figure it out

thanks for all your posts

Actually, it selects the first Lbl in the program, because the Goto command starts a scan for the Lbl from the start. This is why the Lbl command is so slow.

Another use of multiple programs (I've never done this though) is to put a bit of your program across many of them so its easier to handle and faster to edit, so you can put them all together in the end or keep them separate.

Personally, I don't like the r and Theta variables because of their inconsistency with the alphabetic variables and only use them as a last resort or in maths programs involving those variables.

[Andy.Davies]

i use Theata for Pre-Scalers, and r for Delay loops (For -> Next) where the loop does nothing more than create a delay

[Mr_Sparkle]

what do you mean by Pre-Scalers??
and i assume that Delay loops are the same sort of idea as say

Lbl 1
"chicken noodles"
Goto 1

but they are delayed instead of just continueing with no break??

something like:

For 1->T To 300
Next

it does nothing but put a slight pause in the program. btw, 300 is my favorite number to delay by

[octobclrnts]

I like 250 better. Not to be contradictory but I just think that it has a very nice feel to it!

another method

For 1->A To 10
69!
Next
