COGINIT - -> Newcog

in Propeller 2

Suppose one might presume that coginit(newcog... would start the first free cog starting from cog=0.
I.e., filling the bottom first.

But, if one first starts a cog with a later number, say 5 with coginit(5...
Appears that the next newcog will be 6

At least, that is how it is looking. Just something interesting, maybe doesn't matter that much...

    Turns out not to be the case -- at least with my simple experiment. It seems to select the first available starting from cog 0.

    Hmm... Maybe I'm wrong, have to investigate some more...

    The symbol is COGEXEC_NEW
    EDIT: Never mind, I see they are the same numerical values. In fact I didn't know NEWCOG existed until now.

    I use cogexec_new but wanted to match Ray's question -- and did after verifying that newcog and cogexec_new have the same value.
