- Comparative Operators
#contents

- ''elsif''
** Language Specification Worth Mentioning [#b3a53f90]

- comment
-- If you want to write a comment at the end of a statement, for example, you can use ";", instead of "#"
 str$ = "abcdefg"         ; string variable
 num = 3                  ; numeric variable
 echo 'str$''tab$''num'
 # An error occurs if ";" is replaced with "#"

//- No declaration is required to use a variable.

- variable types: numerics and strings
- array

- index numbers start at 1 (not 0).

- Comparison Operators
-- You can use "=", in addition to "=="
 num = 3
 str$ = "hoge"
 
 clearinfo
 if num = 3
     printline 'num'
 endif
 
 if str$ = "hoge"
     printline 'str$'
 endif

- ''elsif'' (neither ''elseif'' nor ''else if'')

- Regular expressions are available in many functions.

- ''form'' and ''endform''

- No double quotations are required in ''print'' (and ''printline'' and ''echo'')

- ''system''

- procedures (or subroutines/functions)

- decrement in ''for''-loop

- Consider the use of ''Table Object'' when you refer to the contents in text files.
