IMP                                                                          Function

result = x IMP y

Description

IMP returns the logical implication of two expressions. Logical implication returns TRUE if x implies y. IMP also does a bitwise comparison of two numeric expressions.

Table 13: Logical Implication

x	y	Implication
TRUE/1	TRUE/1	TRUE/1
TRUE/1	FALSE/0	FALSE/0
FALSE/0	TRUE/1	TRUE/1
FALSE/0	FALSE/0	TRUE/1

Example

REM IMP Example

'IMP preforms logical and bitwiseimplication

DIM Test1, Test2, Test3, x, y

x = 3

y = 5

Test1 = x < 0 IMP y < 10

Test2 = x > 0 IMP y > 10

Test3 = x < 0 IMP y > 10

PRINT "Logical:"

PRINT "  x < 0 IMP y < 10 = " & Test1

PRINT "  x > 0 IMP y > 10 = " & Test2

PRINT "  x < 0 IMP y > 10 = " & Test3

PRINT "Bitwise:"

PRINT "  x IMP y = " & (x IMP y)

Output

Logical:

  x < 0 IMP y < 10 = True

  x > 0 IMP y > 10 = False

  x < 0 IMP y > 10 = True

Bitwise:

  x IMP y = -3
