Using dirb and outb registers in PropBasic

jnogues

Hi All,

I use dirb and outb in spin like 1bit memory for do
boolean relations, for example:

"outb(1):=dirb(0) & dirb(1)"

Could I do the same in PropBasic? How?

Regards,

Use BASIC on the Propeller with the speed of assembly language.

Since you can include single PASM instructions in PropBasic code, you could use those special locations, but there's no easy way to use individual bits easily. It's not impossible to do something like what you're asking for, but it's not easy and it takes a lot of instructions to do it ... not practical.

OK! Thanks for your help!
