INPUT$ (character count, # file number) Abbreviation: 1.$ See Also: INPUT#, OPEN, PRINT# PURPOSE: Allows input of a character string with the specified number of characters from the keyboard or a file. REMARKS: Up to 255 characters can be specified as character count. Format 1 is used to enter a character string with the given number of characters from the keyboard. Execution automatically proceeds to the next statement after a string has been entered. The I. ' I or IENTER I key is also counted as one character. A symbol (e.g. I5MBL I W W 1; four keystrokes) is counted as one character. When entering a string from the keyboard, the OPEN command need not be executed. Format 2 reads a character string with the given number of characters from the file with the given file number. An error occurs if the specified file has not been opened. The INPUT$ command is valid only for a file which has been opened in the INPUT mode. Numerals are treated as characters when read. Since the INPUT$ command reads the specified number of characters, the data stored in the file must have the proper format readable by the INPUT$ command. EXAMPLE: 100: A$=INPUT$ (5, #5) 110: AB$=INPUT${20, #5) This program reads 5 characters into variable A$ and then 20 characters into variable AB$ via buffer No.5. 153
