Chr$: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:21, 17 January 2012

The CHR$(X) internal function returns the ASCII character represented by X, which may have an integer value from 0 to 255.

Chr$ is often used to send special characters to control a printer or screen. Chr$(27) generates the same ASCII character as the Esc key.

Inverse function is Ord(A$). Hex$ function can send several special codes in one function call.

If the parameter value is greater than 255, only the low order byte will be used. Thus, CHR$(65) and CHR$(65+256) both will print the letter A.
