I believe that I have latest version.
Why does this program produce the below output?
What happened to the numeric values?
y=100
print x
print y
print y*2
print 2*y
print y-60
x
y
y*2
2*y
y-60
Done...

Code: Select alllet y = 100
print x
print y
y = y * 2
print y
y = 2 * y
print y
y = y - 60
print y Results:

Thanks for reply. I had not considered that possiblility.
Considering the print x line----
Print x would usually print a zero if x is not assigned in most basics wouldn't it.
Is it normal for the basic to print the x as a character even with no quote marks?

See this thread for quotation mark stuff.
It is a known problem.
