General Purpose Math
You can use general purpose math expressions, following standard BASIC
language conventions, from either the front-panel keyboard, the system
controller, or within 3458AA subprograms. The standard math operators, general
math functions, trigonometric functions, and binary functions are available. The
3458AA also has a simple calculator mode.
Math operators
In addition to the standard math operators (+ – * / ^), two additional arithmetic
operators exist in the 3458AA. These operators are DIV (integer division) and MOD
(modulo). Unary minus operations should be written as:
A = 0-B
The DIV command returns the integer portion of a division. Normal division takes
place but all digits to the right of the decimal point are truncated (not rounded).
The following program divides 7 by 3 and displays the integer portion of the
division (2) on the system controller.
10 OUTPUT 722; "OUTPUT(7 DIV 3)"
20 ENTER 722; A
30 PRINT "DIV Result ="; A
40 END
Typical Printout:
DIV Result = 2
The MOD command returns the remainder portion of a division. As with the DIV
command, normal division takes place; however, MOD returns only the remainder.
The following program divides 7 by 3 and displays the remainder portion of the
division (1) on the system controller.
10 OUTPUT 722; "OUTPUT(7 MOD 3)"
20 ENTER 722; A
30 PRINT "MOD Result="; A
40 END
Typical Printout:
MOD Result=1
Relational math operators (< > <= >= <>) and logical operators (AND and OR) are
allowed in any expression.
