I've seen it used in Hybrid BASIC, come to think of it. Oh well, it'll still be fun.

okay... 'cause I used it with Celtic 3 so that I could do things like make sprite sets and Omnicalc fontsets/editors... Which is how I think it is meant to be used in Correlation... It is a tool I find very useful because it lets you work directly with pure data. It is almost a direct integration of assembly data in BASIC so it is used where speed is desired.

(by the way, I know you know all of that Qwerty, I just figured I would include it for others :D)

It isn't as easy to work with as BASIC data, but it is much faster for Assembly programs to interpret.

Just to recap, Abs( is indeed a faster replacement for sub(.  It is meant for strings that contain only 1 byte tokens or else "funky results will occur".  It's not in the old manual because I thought about it afterwards.  This is part of the reason I want everyone to read the new manual to the letter.

So abs( will NOT work with strings with two-byte tokens or a mix of one and two? Just to make that clear. Will it possibly be implemented later or not so much?

Abs( will work with two-byte tokens, but will produce an incorrect result.  Unfortunately two-byte token support will not be implemented later because Correlation is aimed at one-byte token strings.

Of course, there are a lot of one byte tokens, way more than you'd need for most games.

Correlation doesn't let you display strings with 2-byte tokens anyways.  I think meishe91 was hoping to use Abs( for strings not displayed with Correlation ln( and e^(

I've put a partial list of "who's throughly testing what" on the first post of this topic.  I'm missing two spots still, but I did this early because there are many "eager beavers" who want to start

Hehe, I get to use abs(
I bet I can make some hacks by splitting 2 byte tokens. Think about this... if I take the first byte of Str1, and then I concatenate that with another string, I can make hacked string tokens! Hehe, I can has fun?! Plus, I prefer working with bytes as opposed to tokens, anyway. I'll try to make some fun stuff with this !

Okay, who divided by zero?
Okay, who found a real solution to a^3 + b^3 = c^3?
Okay, who tried to fool around with abs( ?

You know, you could probably do something vaguely resembling Self modifying code with abs(, if you were so inclined.

Nah, I was just asking because just in case, for some weird reason, someone ran out of one byte tokens to use and had to resort to using two-byte :P

Can I test, or am I too late?
