Byte format syntax

Types byte, word, longword and floating point data can be encoded as follows:

Size

• b for byte-size (8 bit) value.
• w for word-size (16 bit) value.
• l for longword-size (32 bit) value.

Numeral System

• d for decimal system.
• h for hexadecimal system.

Value

Enter the value of the datum after the colon.

Note:
For floating point values set Size and Numeral system to:

• fl is for float values.
• do is for double values.

Examples

• <bd:-15> means byte-size datum with decimal value -15.
• <wh:23f0> means word-size datum with hexadecimal value 23f0.
• <ld:1234567890> means longword-size datum with decimal value 1234567890.
• <fl:2.5> means float-size datum with value 2.5.
• <do:1.8e7> means double-size datum with value 1.8×10^7

Note
If you want to find or paste a valid special syntax string like <bd:0> as text, then prefix a \ to <. This will turn < into a normal character. Copying a < in the file will insert the \ automatically.
Backslashes ("\") in the file are copied and encoded as double backslashes ("\\").

Data ranges and sizes

Integers

• Byte
  signed from -128 to 127
  unsigned from 0 to 255
• Word (2 bytes)
  signed from -32,768 to 32,767
  unsigned from 0 to 65,535
• Longword (4 bytes)
  signed from -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
  unsigned from 0 to 4,294,967,295

Floating point types

• Float (4 bytes) range 3.4E +/- 38 (7 digits)
• Double (8 bytes range 1.7E +/- 308 (15 digits)
