Actual Entry (non editable)
Convert Hex to Decimal (c) 1979 Fabris, Robert [San Jose, CA, USA] This program accepts a two-byte hex number such as $D5FF and converts it to a decimal number that can be input into BASIC (in this case $D5FF is -43 decimal). This program is useful since a POKE command in Bally BASIC inputs two bytes at a time in decimal. Because of the unusual method that Bally BASIC stores the data, the hex bytes must be reversed on input into this program to get the correct output. So, $D5FF would be input as $FFD5. This program only accepts one digit at a time. - TRIVIA - Published as a type-in program in the Arcadian newsletter by Robert Fabris; Arcadian, 1, no. 5 (March 1979): 36 - STAFF - Programmer: Ernie Sams - SOURCES - Game's Listing.
