Hi,
I had this little annoyance about programming with the Prime and using Comma as decimal mark. I am used to it and in many countries that is the current decimal separator. All it takes is to put two instructions separated by ";" to have a "Syntax error in program line..." message. So, when comma is set, the calculator find a syntax error after a semi-colon between instructions.
Something as simple as :
EXPORT ONE()
BEGIN
local x;
x:=1;
msgbox(x);
END;
produces a syntax error at the beginning of line 4.
Of course, once a program is compiled without errors, it can run whatever the decimal separator is set. Before debugging and making changes to a program, I go to home setting and change this option and when everything is fine and the program compiles, I return and change it again. A little annoying but feasible.
What I would like to ask, because I did not find anything about it in the manual, is: when comma is the decimal mark, is there other character to be use to finish an instruction that is not the semicolon?
Thanks and regards,
Miguel
