Here is an example:

dim msg as string[20]

    res_txt as string[5]

    res, channel as word

main:

  ‘...

  ‘ Get result of ADC

  res = Adc_Read(channel)

  ‘ Create string out of numeric result

  WordToStr(res, res_txt)

  ‘ Prepare message for output

  msg = “Result is “ +      ‘ Text “Result is”

          res_txt           ‘ Result of ADC

‘...

Notes: 

- In current version plus operator for concatenating strings will accept at most two operands. 

- mikroBasic PRO for dsPIC30/33 and PIC24 includes a String Library which automatizes string related tasks. 

A pointer is a data type which holds a memory address. While a variable accesses that memory address directly, a 

pointer can be thought of as a reference to that memory address.

To declare a pointer data type, add a carat prefix (

^

) before type. For example, in order to create a pointer to an 

integer

, write:

^integer

In order to access data at the pointer’s memory location, add a carat after the variable name. For example, let’s declare 

variable 

p

 which points to a 

word

, and then assign value 5 to the pointed memory location:

dim p as ^word

‘...

p^ = 5

A pointer can be assigned to another pointer. However, note that only the address, not the value, is copied. Once you 

modify the data located at one pointer, the other pointer, when dereferenced, also yields modified data.
