                 preceded by # ), ASCII values (must be enclosed in
                 quotes, as "A"), memory content (location must be
                 enclosed in apostrophes, as 'Q+ 2'), and regis- ter
                 content (must be preceded by $, as $X). The types of
                 values may be mixed in an expression.  (Required
                 parameter.)

mode             The representation mode for the result.  0 specifies

                 All numbers included in the mnemonic code display are
                 octal.  If omitted, the result is represented as an
                 octal value.  (Optional parameter.)

EXAMPLES 

     ?=4+(5*2 -3/(1+1))        Answer is 15 (octal). 
     =15
     ?=#4+(55*#12)-"A", I      Answer is + 479 (decimal). 
     =+479
     ?=$Q                      Answer is current value 
                               of Q-register (41 octal) 
     =41
     ?='DB+26'                 Answer is current contents 
                               of DB+ 26 (23420 octal) 
     =23420
     ?='Q+l',C                 Answer is current contents 
                               of Q+1 (NOP, DCMP code).
