APPENDIX D. EXPRESSION ERRORS
D-2
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.
D.1.1.6 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.
