hash operator

In general, the hash operator (#) allows you to indicate the will to refer, explicitly, to a constant rather than to a value mediated by a variable. Without this operator, ugBASIC may decide to make a temporary copy of the value before using it. This can be inefficient. Therefore it is possible to indicate the will to actually refer to the equivalent value. For this reason, this operator works only if it is used with a constant value (eg: an integer) or with the name of a constant.

SYNTAX

 = #constant


Legend
  • id : identifier
  • type : datatype
  • v : value
  • "..." : string
  • [...] : optional

EXAMPLE

 fontSize = #constantSize
 fontSize = #42
