[mdijkens]

Example showing difference passing parameter variables by reference or by value:

Code: (Select All)

x = 5: x$ = "ABC"

Print "By Reference:"

Print "Checkfunction returns "; CheckFunction$(x, x$)

Print "After CheckFunction x="; x

Print "After CheckFunction x$="; x$



x = 5: x$ = "ABC"

Print "By Value:"

Print "Checkfunction returns "; CheckFunction$((x), "a" + x$)

Print "After CheckFunction x="; x

Print "After CheckFunction x$="; x$



Function CheckFunction$ (x, x$)

  x = x * 3: x$ = x$ + "DEF"

  CheckFunction$ = "hello"

End Function
