Ref. Example

a)G01 X(#100 + #101). All calculations must be enclosed in parentheses. This defines an expression.

b)G00 Y&A(#102 * #103) LOOP (5 / 2 / .01)

Example of multiplication, division, and modification.

c)G01 X(3 + 2)

#100 = (#122 - #105). Addition and Subtraction.

d)IF (#101 > 0) THEN .

Greater than (>), less than (<).

e)IF (#144 = #143) GOTO ...

Equal to, not equal to (!=)

f)TOMM (n); convert n to mm.

If n's type is inch, TOMM (n) = n * 25.4

g)TOIN (n); convert n to inch. If n's type is mm, TOIN (n) = n / 25.4

h)TODE (n); convert to current (IN or MM) mode.

i)TONU (n); force the type of (n) to the modal (inch or mm).

j)ROUND (n) rounds the value of (n) up or down, depending if its fractional part is equal or greater than 0.500000, or less than 0.500000.

#100 = 1.500 ; G01 X(round(#100)) moves to X2.0000 #101 = 1.499 ; G01 X(round(#101)) moves to X1.0000

k)FIX (n) rounds the value down to the next whole number. #100 = (5/2) ; G01 X(fix(#100)) moves to X2.0000

l)FUP (n) rounds the value up to the next whole number. #100 = (5/2) ; G01 X(fup(#100)) moves to X3.0000

m)VAR (n) is used to check if a user variable has been defined in a program. IF (var(#100)) THEN . If #100 has been defined by the user, then true. If not, then false.
