Specifies a default data type for a range of variable names

Syntax

` Defuint start_letter[-end_letter ][, ...]

`

Parameters

start_letter

the first letter in the range

end_letter

the last letter in the range

Description

Defuint specifies that variables and arrays which aren't declared with a data type - or not declared at all - are implicitly declared of type Uinteger if the first letter of their names matches a certain letter or lies within an inclusive range of letters.

Examples

This will make uNumber a Uinteger number since its first letter starts with u.

start GeSHi

'' Compile with -lang fblite

#lang "fblite"

DefInt u
Dim uNumber

end GeSHi
