Can't logical AND (&) 2 bits together?

T'Saavik

Was trying to clean my code up a bit, and i ran into this odd problem.
I was suprised not to find the answer in the operators section of sx/b help file.
This feels like it has a very simple answer that will make me feel really...simple [noparse]:)[/noparse]
Here is a snip

ir_in_left     VAR    Bit
ir_in_right    VAR    Bit
ir_in_center   VAR    Bit

IR_IN_CENTER = IR_IN_LEFT & IR_IN_RIGHT      'sensor is 0v for detect so 0 AND 0= 0 = yes

I get this error when i try to compile:

sx/b said...

UNKNOWN COMMAND "LET"

Full Code here be afraid, its a work in progress. And my first work at that.

In SX/B -- No VAR Bit or Nib

I will conceal my embarrassment with shock and feigned outrage!!

Thanks Allen [noparse]:D[/noparse]

SX/B does have BIT variables, but BIT variables do not support "AND" (mainly because the SX assembly doesn't support bit operators).
You can do something like:

IR_IN_Center = IR_IN_Left
IF IR_IN_Center = 1 THEN
IR_IN_Center = IR_IN_Right
ENDIF
