Byte

Byte is not actually a command. It's a keyword used to declare an item as being Byte data type. Namely used with Types FACTS:       * Byte values are 8bit and have a numeric range of 0 to 255       * Byte can only be used with Pointers & Type Fields in PlayBASIC V1.64 and bellow, there is no support Byte variables at this time. Mini Tutorial:       This example shows some valid usages of Byte today.    ; Declare a Byte Pointer of (a pointer to read/write byte values)   Dim MyPointer As Byte Pointer    ; Create a bank   CreateBank 1,100    ; Get the address of this bank and store it in MyPointer   MyPointer=GetBankPtr(1)    ; Use this pointer to write some byte values to a bank   For lp=0 To 10      *MyPointer=lp      MyPointer=MyPointer+1   Next    ; Get the address of this bank and store it in MyPointer again   MyPointer=GetBankPtr(1)    ; Use this pointer to reads the values from the bank   For lp=0 To 10      Print *(MyPointer+lp)   Next       ; Display the Screen and wait for the user to press a key   Sync   WaitKey    This example would output.      0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   10
