POKE
Syntax:
poke <int address>, <byte or int value>
The POKE
command stores a value into the given memory address. The following type conversions are possible:
address
will be recognized as an unsigned integer- if
value
is an integer, it will be truncated to a byte
Examples:
rem ** turn border to black ** poke 53280, 0 rem ** unsigned conversion ** let x = -5 poke x, 0 rem ** which will effectively be the same as: poke 65531,0 rem ** values are truncated to 8 bits - the MSB is discarded ** poke 53280, 65535 rem ** will be the same as poke 53820, 255
