🆕 LPRINT

BASIC Anywhere Machine, being browser-based,  cannot implement output to hardware devices like traditional/installed BASIC implementations can.

However, can implement related BASIC statements in a way that maintains compatibility with the original intent of those statements, providing BAM with useful functionality that does work within the confines/constraints/rules of web browsers.

LPRINT has entered the building...

This first implementation of LPRINT keeps it simple by not allowing a list of expressions as normally typical in any BASIC:

LPRINT takes the string resulting from an expression and outputs that string to a text file. The string can contain a very large number of characters.

Syntax

LPRINT string_expression

• string_expression
  • this can be as simple as a string literal or a string variable, or a string expression of whatever complexity
