SPC

Action

Prints the number of specified spaces.

 

 

Syntax

PRINT SPC(x)

LCD SPC(x)

 

 

Remarks

X	The number of spaces to print.

 

Using 0 for x will result in a string of 255 bytes because there is no check for a zero length assign.

 

SPC can be used with LCD too.

 

The difference with the SPACE function is that SPACE returns a number of spaces while SPC() can only be used with printing. Using SPACE() with printing is also possible but it will use a temporary buffer while SPC does not use a temporary buffer.
