Summary - Epson FX-80 User Manual

You can enter the number of repetitions right into the DATA lines,
coded as a negative number. Then change the READ routine to test for
a negative number. When a negative number is read, the program will
transfer control to a special subroutine that does the repeating (or use
a STRING$ statement). Try this change:
5~ READ N: IF N(~ THEN 1~~
9~ DATA 8,28,62,93,-6,28,93,62,28,8
1~~
READ R: FOR J=l TO -N
11~
LPRINT CHR$(R);: NEXT J
12~
X=X-N-l: GOTO
7~
And RUN it again. Same thing, right? And with less data. The num-
ber of repetitions (6) is entered into the DATA line as a negative num-
ber that is followed by the pattern (28) to be repeated. Yet even with
this short cut, graphic designs require lots of data.
