Input

Syntax:

Input

Ⅺ <variable name>[,"<string 1>"[,"<string 2>"]]

Function: When program execution reaches the Input command, the user is prompted for

input of a value, which is assigned to the specified variable.

Description
• If you do not specify anything for "<string 1>", the prompt “<variable name>?” appears by

default.

• The text specified for "<string 2>" is used as the input dialog box title.
• The Input command pauses program execution and displays a dialog box that contains the

text string indicated by "<string 1>" and an input box. A text string enclosed within quotation
marks (" ") or a variable name can be specified for "<string 1>".

• Specifying a long text string can cause part of it to be cut off when it is displayed in the

dialog box.

• When the dialog box appears, input a value into the input box and then tap [OK]. This

closes the dialog box, assigns the input value to the applicable variable and resumes
program execution.

• Tapping [

] on the dialog box terminates program execution.

• During execution of the Input command, program execution is paused for input of data.

While a program is paused, you can input individual mathematical expressions only. You
cannot input commands or multiple expressions joined by colons (:).
