Examples

These are sample pieces of XC=BASIC source code.

rem ** fibonacci series **

max = 32767
t1 = 0
t2 = 1

print "fibonacci series:"
loop:
  print t1, " "
  nx = t1 + t2
  t1 = t2
  t2 = nx
  if nx < max then goto loop
end

This example implements the << (left shift) operation on an integer for demonstration purposes.

rem -- example implementation of the << (left shift)
rem -- operation using an USR function

print usr(@fn_leftShift, 896)
end

rem -- Function fn_leftShift(int argument)
rem --

fn_leftShift:
asm "
    ; The argument is available on the stack
    tsx
    asl $0102,x
    rol $0101,x

    ; Note this is the only valid way to return from an user function
    ; The caller will pull back the result from the stack
    jmp ($02fe)
