DIM - AS - VARIABLE TYPE likely bug

[Kernelpanic]

No bug.  That's how BASIC is designed.  Just like CONST, once you explicitly define something, it locks out other definitions.

So, what's the difference in defining a variable as

DIM A AS INTEGER
compared to
DIM A% 
?

There is no difference in the matter. A declaration like *)"A%" is the way the old Basic freaks write, and it's hard to break away from something like that. The same applies to "Option _Explicit". 
It didn't exist in QB, and declarations with "Dim" only had the benefit of not having to constantly write in the program: A% here, A% there, and so on. But spelling mistakes were still not reported.
*)Only A%, not Dim A%

For example:

Code: (Select All)

'Without -Option _Explicit-, 3. Mai 2024



Dim As Integer eingabe, summme



eingabe = 4

summe = eingabe * 3

Print summe



Print

'Spelling mistake

summe = engabe * 4

Print summe



End
