Pointer in Basic

[bplus]

@SagaraS - I haven't looked at it properly yet, those 8 bytes are on my mind.

Maybe it's like this: With an input, the start address is given, ok. If a second entry is then made, the limit of the two variables is displayed, and thus practically the new start address for the next entry. - It's just a thought. . . Let's see.

But maybe it is very simple. Everything great is simple . . . a philosopher once said. 

See in the description of my code I wrote in the last post.

QB64 reserves memory for the following data types:
_BYTE = 8 Byte
_UNSIGNED _BYTE = 8 Byte
INTEGER = 8 Byte
_UNSIGNED INTEGER = 8 Byte
LONG = 8 Byte
_UNSIGNED LONG = 8 Byte
_INTEGER64 = 8 Byte
_UNSIGNED INTEGER64 = 8 Byte
DOUBLE = 8 Byte
_FLOAT = 32 Byte

_MEM and _OFFSET work perfectly, but QB64 data types declaration does not.
QB64 reserves for 64Bit data types, and that for each data type.

You can check the output offset addresses with a memory viewer.

"but QB64 data types declaration does not."

Your table is not matching the Wiki:
https://qb64phoenix.com/qb64wiki/index.p...able_Types
2 for Integers, 4 for Long, 8 _Integer64
4, 8, 32 for Single, Double and _Float (only 10 used (seems a waste))
