Integer Statement

Declares variables of Integer type. (2 byte integer variable).

Syntax
Integer varName [(subscripts)] [, varName [(subscripts)]...]

Parameters

varName

Specify the variable name which the user wants to declare.

Maximum element number of the array variable

Optional. Dimensions of an array variable; up to 3 dimensions may be declared. The subscripts syntax is as follows
(ubound1, [ubound2], [ubound3])
ubound1, ubound2, ubound3 each specify the maximum upper bound for the associated dimension. The elements in each dimension of an array are numbered from 0 and the available number of array elements is the upper bound value + 1. When specifying the upper bound value, make sure the number of total elements is within the range shown below:

• Local variable: 2,000
• Global Preserve variable: 4,000
• Global variable and module variable: 100,000

Description
Integer is used to declare variables as type integer. Integer variables can contain values from -32768 to 32767. Local variables should be declared at the top of a function. Global and module variables must be declared outside of functions.

Integer Statement Example
The following example shows a simple program that declares some variables using Integer.

Function inttest
    Integer A(10)         'Single dimension array of integer
    Integer B(10, 10)     'Two dimension array of integer
    Integer C(5, 5, 5)    'Three dimension array of integer
    Integer var1, arrayvar(10)
    Integer i
    Print "Please enter an Integer Number"
    Input var1
    Print "The Integer variable var1 = ", var1
    For i = 1 To 5
        Print "Please enter an Integer Number"
        Input arrayvar(i)
        Print "Value Entered was ", arrayvar(i)
    Next i
Fend
