Conditional Tests

Conditional tests let programs make decisions. For example, depending on whether a
test is true or false, a program can decide which of two actions to perform. Conditional
tests are used with control structures such as

If...EndIf

and loops such as

While...EndWhile

(described later in this module).

right

Returns a specified number of characters from the right side
(end) of a string.

rotate

Rotates the characters in a string. The default is L1 (rotate
right one character).

shift

Shifts the characters in a string and replaces them with
spaces. The default is

L

1 (shift right one character and

replace with one space). Examples: shift("abcde",2)

"cde "

and shift("abcde")

" abcd"

string

Converts a numeric expression into a string. This is the
opposite of the expr command.
