The MKD$ function encodes a DOUBLE numerical value into an 8-byte ASCII STRING value.
Syntax
- result$ = MKD$(doublePrecisionVariableOrLiteral#)
Description
- doublePrecisionVariableOrLiteral# is converted to eight ASCII characters. To see this in action, try PRINT MKD$(12345678).
- DOUBLE values can range up to 15 decimal point digits. Decimal point accuracy depends on whole value places taken.
- The string value can be converted back to a DOUBLE numerical value using CVD.
- DOUBLE numerical variable values PUT into a BINARY file are automatically placed as an MKD$ ASCII string value.
