Command

Result

set A = B CATL 0123

B = 56789

56789 CATL 0123 = 012356789

set A = A CATL A

A = #

# CATL # = none

set A = B CATL 0123

Variable definition:

  • A = collect type, length = 4, start = 3

  • B = 56789

56789 CATL 0123 = 012356789 = 2356

Four digits were selected starting at position 3 in the resulting digit string.

set digits = A CATL 0123

digits = length=16, start=1

A = 123456789012345

123456789012345 CATL 0123 = 0123123456789012345 = 0123123456789012

The first 16 digits are selected and stored in the digits buffer.

set A = A CATL A

A = none (null string or empty)

none CATL none = none
