RDX( ) |
Convert ASCII to Radix-40 |
RDX(ascii$[,ERR=stmtref])
Where:
|
ascii$ |
Character string containing ASCII data. String expression. |
|
stmtref |
Program line number or statement label to which to transfer control. |
Radix-40 equivalent of given ASCII string.
The RDX( ) function is used to convert data from normal ASCII to Radix-40. Conversion to Radix-40 compresses three characters (any of 0-9, A-Z, ., -, $, or space) into two bytes of data (16 bits).
To convert data back to ASCII, use the inverse function TRX( ).
TRX( ) Convert Radix-40 to ASCII

print hta(A$)
print hta(rdx(A$))
