6.1.7 Numeric coding conventions
The following coding conventions apply to numerics:
-
0, +0, and -0 are regarded as the same value.
-
A sequence of all zeros are regarded as zero.
-
JP1/Script handles integers only.
Commas (,) are not recognized when a numeric value is enclosed with double quotation marks ("). For example, "10,000" and 10000 are regarded as the same value.
-
Plus signs preceding numerics are not recognized. For example, 600 and +600 are regarded as the same value.
-
JP1/Script handles numerics in the range -2,147,483,647 to 2,147,483,647.
-
A numeric value enclosed with double quotation marks (") is not handled as a string. For example, "10000" and 10000 are regarded as the same value. To interpret a numeric as a character string, use the Str command.
