Declares, dimensions and reserves memory for Long integers.
Syntax: LONG item [,item...]
Where:
item = numeric-name [(bounds) [BUFFER]]
bounds = [lower-bound :] upper-bound [,bounds]
bound = integer constant
Usage:
LONG I,J,K
LONG A,J,Cnt,Point,X(100)
LONG Aarray(-128:127,16)
LONG Buff(600) BUFFER
Description:
LONG is a data type. Other data types are I/O path, integer, real, complex, and string. LONG declares, dimensions and reserves memory for integers between -2,147,483,648 and 2,147,483,647. LONG variables can be declared and used in exactly the same ways that INTEGER variables are used. The only difference is the range of values allowed.
