DEF FN
(Statement)
Declare a user-defined function.
DEF FN <functionname>[<suffix>] = <constant>
DEF FN <functionname>[<suffix>](<argument>[,<argument>...]) = <arithmetic expression>
This statement declares a <functionname> starting with FN as a user defined function.
<argument> is a variable name to be used in <arithmetic expression>. A different variable type with the same variable name cannot be declared.
Specifying <suffix> declares also the variable type. <suffix> is any of the following.
Integer suffix:
|
%
|
Single-precision suffix:
|
!
|
Double-precision suffix:
|
#
|
String suffix:
|
$
|
<suffix> can be omitted. Omitting it regards the user-defined function as a single-precision variable of type real.

'Declare FND$ as a user defined function

DEF FNLAP# (radius) = 2 * PI * radius
|
'Declare FNLAP# (radius) as a user defined
'function of the double precision real type

DEF FNAREA (radius) = PI * POW(radius, 2)

|
'Declare FNAREA (radius) as a user defined
'function of the single precision real type

'Output "DENSO" from ch1

PRINT #1, FNLAP# (HANKEI)
