Questionmark "?"

Post by Löwenherz »

hello all
a silly question perhaps, but how to make a substitute For ? = print as reserved character?

Code: Select all

sub qmark(args() as string)
dim i as integer
for i = lbound(args) to ubound(args)
print args(i);
next
Print
end sub

'qmark("hello") ' error
sleep

Not sure to understand your question :-)
By the way, a string is not an array it's a special datatype.
Maybe this :

Code: Select all

sub qmark(args as string)
for i as integer  = 0 to len (args)-1
print chr(args[i]);
next
Print
end sub

qmark("hello") ' error
sleep

Code: Select all

? "Hello"
Is that what you are trying to do? That works in FB. You don't need to do anything special to use the question mark in place of Print..
