| PRINT USING Statement Programming Examples |
|   |
| These examples show the use of string- and numeric-formatting |
| characters with PRINT USING. |
|   |
| Example 1 |
|   |
| Here is an example of using string-formatting characters: |
|   |
| CLS    ' Clear screen |
| A$ = "LOOK" : B$ = "OUT" |
| PRINT USING "!"; A$; B$            'First characters of A$ and B$. |
| PRINT USING "\\  \\"; A$; B$         'Two spaces between backslashes, |
|                                    'prints four characters from A$. |
| PRINT USING "\\   \\"; A$; B$; "!!"  'Three spaces, prints A$ and |
|                                    'a blank. |
| PRINT USING "!"; A$;               'First character from A$ and |
| PRINT USING "&"; B$                'all of B$ on one line. |
|   |
| Sample Output |
|   |
| LO |
| LOOKOUT |
| LOOK OUT  !! |
| LOUT |
|   |
| Example 2 |
|   |
| Here is an example showing the effects of different combinations |
| of numeric formatting characters: |
|   |
| 'Format and print numeric data. |
| CLS    ' Clear screen |
| PRINT USING "##.##"; .78 |
| PRINT USING "###.##"; 987.654 |
| PRINT USING "##.##   "; 10.2, 5.3, 66.789, .234 |
| PRINT USING "+##.##   "; -68.95, 2.4, 55.6, -.9 |
| PRINT USING "##.##-   "; -68.95, 22.449, -7.01 |
| PRINT USING "**#.#   "; 12.39, -0.9, 765.1 |
| PRINT USING "$$###.##"; 456.78 |
| PRINT USING "**$##.##"; 2.34 |
| PRINT USING "####,.##"; 1234.5 |
| PRINT USING "##.##^^^^"; 234.56 |
| PRINT USING ".####^^^^-"; -888888 |
| PRINT USING "+.##^^^^"; 123 |
| PRINT USING "+.##^^^^^"; 123 |
| PRINT USING "_!##.##_!"; 12.34 |
| PRINT USING "##.##"; 111.22 |
| PRINT USING ".##"; .999 |
