13.10.16.1 Byte Data Operator Examples

For a byte array:

    data b;

the

    b[0], b[1], b[-1], b[-2]

are the first, second, last and before last bytes.

    b = "X0X0";

sets b as the string X0X0.

For a second byte array:

    data c;

the assignment:

    c = b;

sets c as another reference to the object pointed by b.

The arrays may be modified as:

    b[1] = 0;

    b[3] = abs(-2);

    b[1] = b[3] = 'o';
