''@'' (address of) is a unary operator that resolves the memory address of a variable or label. The address is returned as a [[WORD]].

===== Examples =====

<code xcbasic>
DIM x AS INT
PRINT "x resides at address "; @x

DIM y(3) AS LONG
PRINT "array member addresses: "; @y(0), @y(1), @y(2)

mylab:
PRINT "this code piece starts at "; @mylab
</code>

<adm note>
If applied to a dynamic local variable, the ''@'' operator will return an address //relative to the current stack frame//.
</adm>

<code xcbasic>
SUB routine () ' Note this sub is not STATIC
  DIM a AS INT
  DIM b AS INT
  STATIC c AS INT
  PRINT @b ' Will output 2
  PRINT @c ' Will output an absolute address
END SUB

CALL routine()
