4.2.6.2 Assignment Expressions
Assignment expressions are used to assign a value to a variable or to a command. The
syntax of an assignment expression is:
<parameter or command name>=<simple expression>
Examples:
SP=SP*2/5+AC
OP=IP|5
If the variable or the command is a vector, the assignment is allowed only for its single
member. The syntax of the vector member assignment is:
<parameter or command name>[index]=<simple expression>
The index is an index of the relevant member vector. Indices are enumerated from zero.
Example:
CA[1]=1
Be aware that when different types are assigned, the value may be truncated. If, for
example, the variable or command type is integer and the assigned value is floating
point, the floating value is rounded to the nearest integer. If a rounded integer value
exceeds the integer range, this value is truncated to the nearest valid integer.
Example:

Remarks
AC=12,345.6789
– Assign floating value to integer AC command.
AC
12,346 Floating value rounded to nearest integer.
KV[10]=215.789e8
– Assign floating value to integer KV[10]
command.
KV[10]
2,147,483,647 Floating value truncated to maximum integer
value.
When an integer value is assigned to a floating point command or variable, it is
converted to a float. The conversion process may be imprecise due to the truncation into
float IEEE format.
