| Title | QTIPS - V118 |
| Keywords | V118 LKDUMP |
| Text | Owners of the first Volume of REVMEDIA will recall that we dismissed V118 as an "Assembler routine used by LKDUMP for double integer conversions" Recently a reader said "Excuse me?" so to clarify : V118 is a subroutine that takes two parameters the passed value and the value to be returned The passed value can be up to three bytes in length and is a "Base 256" number in lo byte medium byte hi byte order The returned value is the decimal equivalent of the passed value Thus if V118 were passed CHAR(1) : CHAR(2) : CHAR(3) it would return 197 121 (1 + (2 * 256) + (3 * 256^2) This is of most use in manipulating Link files where the header information is stored in this format (Volume 2 Issue 8 Page 5) |
