User`s manual

In mikroBasic, use the keyword Result to assign the return value of a function.

Example:

dim locS as word

locS = par1 + par2

Result = locS

end sub

As functions return a value, function calls are technically expressions. For exam-

ple, if you have defined a function called Calc, which collects two integer argu-

ments and returns an integer, then the function call

Calc(24, 47) is an integer

expression. If I and J are integer variables, then I + Calc(J, 8) is also an inte-

ger expression. Here are a few examples of function calls:

Sum(tA,63)

Maximum(147,J)

GetValue

Note that cross-calling and recursive calls are not allowed in mikroBasic. Cross-

calling is an instance of procedure A calling procedure B, and then procedure B

calling procedure A. Recursive call is an instance of procedure or function calling

itself. Compiler will report error if cross-calling or recursive calls are encountered

in the code.

mikroBasic has a number of built-in and predefined library routines. For example,

procedure

interrupt is the interrupt service routine.

Nested calls are limited to 8-level depth for PIC16 series and 31-level depth for

PIC18 series. Nested call represent call of another function or procedure within a

function or procedure. For closer information, refer to the chapter PIC Specifics.
