====== MEMSET ======

//Since version 2.1//

Syntax:

  memset <int source_address>, <int length>, <byte fill_value>

The ''MEMSET'' command calls a built-in routine that sets //length// number of bytes in memory to //fill_value// starting from //source_address//. The same functionality can be achieved with ''[[fornext|FOR ... NEXT]]'' and ''[[poke|POKE]]'', but ''MEMSET'' is considerably faster.

Example:

  rem -- clear the screen
  memset 1024, 1000, 32
  
which is equivalent to:

  for n = 1024 to 2023
    poke n, 32
  next n

**Note**: all parameters of this command can be either bytes or integers, implicit conversions will occur in case of type mismatch.
