NOT
Abbreviation: N <SHIFT+O>
TYPE: Logical Operator
FORMAT: NOT <expression>
Action: The NOT logical operator "complements" the
value of each bit in its single operand, producing an integer
"twos-complement" result. In other words, the NOT is
really saying, "if it isn't. When working with a floating-point
number, the operands are converted to integers and any fractions
are lost. The NOT operator can also be used in a comparison to
reverse the true/false value which was the result of a relationship
test and therefore it will reverse the meaning of the comparison.
In the first example below, if the "twos-complement"
of "AA" is equal to "BB" and if "BB"
is NOT equal to "CC" then the expression is true.
EXAMPLES of NOT Operator:
10 IF NOT AA = BB AND NOT(BB = CC) THEN...
NN% = NOT 96: PRINT NN%
-97
NOTE: TO find the value of NOT use the expression X=(-(X+1)).
(The two's complement of any integer is the bit complement plus
one.
