APPENDIX C. PC208W ERROR MESSAGES
PC208W, Version 3.0, Instruction Manual C-3
C.2.1.4 Function Expected
Letters that are immediately followed by
parentheses are assumed to be a function. If
the letters are not on the function list (see
section 2.3.3.2), this error message occurs.
C.2.1.5 New Line Expected
Indicates one of the following situations:
(1) An expression contains more than one
equal sign.
(2) There is no operator between two sets of
parentheses.
For Example:
This error message is displayed when a
program contains any of these expressions:
zee=(label1)(label2)
ex=(5)(ARCTAN(data))
eee=(em)(see^2)
These are correct ways of entering the above
expressions:
zee=(label1)*(label2)
ex=(5)*(ARCTAN(data))
eee=(em)*(see^2)
(3) There is no operator between a set of
parentheses and a number.
For Example:
This error message is displayed when a
program contains any of these expressions:
tee=5(2)
mu=(nu)103
bee=10.52(ef/2)
sigma=-17(RCP(alpha))
These are correct ways of entering the above
expressions:
tee=5*(2)
mu=(nu)*103
bee=10.52*(ef/2)
sigma=-17*(RCP(alpha))
(4) A label or function is immediately after a set
of parentheses without an operator.
For Example:
This error message is displayed when a
program contains any of these expressions:
result=(ex^2)data
gamma=(10-omega)SIN(psi)
dee=(17)number
These are correct ways of entering the above
expressions:
result=(ex^2)*data
gamma=(10-omega)*SIN(psi)
dee=(17)*number
C.2.1.6 Equal Sign Expected
An equal sign MUST immediately follow the
label of the Input Location that stores the results
(e.g., label = expression). An expression that
contains no equal sign causes compiler error
202, “unrecognized text”.
For Example:
“Equal sign expected” is displayed when a
program contains any of these expressions:
zee/2=bee
data+number=volt1+volt2
These are correct ways of entering the above
expressions:
bee=zee/2
data=volt1+volt2-number
