An expression to be coerced. All types are valid.
Table 8-18 Derivation of the U16 Bit Pattern | Parameter Type | Action |
|---|
| BOOL | 1 if TRUE, 0 if FALSE. | U16 S16 | Transfer the original bit pattern unchanged. | U32 S32 S64 SPTR | Transfer the low-order 16 bits. | LONG Class EADDR SADDR | Transfer the low-order 16 bits of the offset part. | | STR | Transfer the ASCII bit pattern for the last two characters in the
string. Strings shorter than two characters are treated as if they were
extended on the left with nulls. |
Examples | |
$nmdat > wl u16( 1 )
