Discriminators: Strings & Variables

Peter_DevRes · Post by **Peter_DevRes** » Fri Apr 03, 2009 1:47 pm

Hi there,

Looking for some syntax help for PB.

I would like to fully understand the string, variable and array type discriminators. Not clear how PureBasic 'labels/denotes' these different string types or variable types. Any clues?

Case in point:
" FileNo.l " --> what is '.l'

Would be grateful for some general background on this.

Do you happen to know what section are these described in, in the PB manual (v4.30)? I have search the manual, not finding what I am interested in.

Thanks & regards,

Peter.

The .l means long (see Variables, Types and Operators).
