SECTION 10. PROCESSING INSTRUCTIONS

To facilitate cross referencing, parameter descriptions are keyed [ ] to the values given on the PROMPT SHEET. These values are defined as follows:

[Z]= Destination input location for result

[X]= Input location of X

[Y]= Input location of Y

[F]= Fixed Data (user specified floating point number)

*** 30 LOAD FIXED DATA ***

FUNCTION

Store a fixed value into an input location. The value is entered in scientific notation; the

absolute value of the number may range from 1 x 10-19to 9 x 1018. A value smaller than the

minimum is set to 0, while a larger value is set to the maximum.
