Undocumented Data Type Shortcut

N	(Posted 2005) [#1]

@ seems to create a byte (or something that gets cut off at 255, which says 'byte' to me).

E.g.,

Print 255@
Print 256@
Print 257@

Rem
Should print:
255
0
1
EndRem

and @@ is a short. Or you could just use :byte or :short

Yeah, this is correct -- @ is byte and @@ is short. Looks like it got missed out.

I was thinking it was a bad idea to make short two charachters but I guess you ran out of symbols eh :)
