Title: Using Restore To Search For String Labels
Post by: kevin on January 02, 2006, 07:31:28 AM
This example demos how you can embed strings within data statements, then use Restore to locate them dynamically.  A lot easier than hard coding "Labels" manually like you would in other languages ..


[pbcode]
; set PB auto counter to 1
AcSet=1

; Level Id
Data "Level"+str$(ac(1))
 Data 1,2,3,4

 
; Level Id
Data "Level"+str$(ac(1))
 Data 5,6,7,8
 
; Level Id
Data "Level"+str$(ac(1))
  Data 9,10,11,12

; Level Id
Data "Level"+str$(ac(1))
  Data 13,14,15,16



Constant Max_number_of_levels = ac(1)




do

   Cls 0

   Level=rndRange(1,Max_number_of_levels-1)
 ; Random Pick the Level you wish to read from
  Restore "Level"+str$(level)

 
  Print "Reading data from"+ReadData$()
   For lp=1 to 4
   Print ReadData()
  next
  print ""


  sync
  waitkey

loop
