Re: How to do t_INT bit operations?

[Denis Simon <denis.simon@unicaen.fr>]

Hi Ruud,

These commands do not do exactly the same.
In particular, 
print(Str(gettime())ms);
print(Str(gettime()ms));
print(gettime()ms);

These three use the value of the variable called ms.
If this variable has not be assigned a value, it prints its name, hence "ms".
But if it has a value, the value is printed.
For example:

? ms="hello world"; print(Str(gettime())ms);
1hello world

So these three options should definitely not be used.

Denis SIMON.
