readln
Usage
readln (f)
readln (f, v)
readln (f, v1, ..., vn)
readln
readln (v)
readln (v1, ..., vn)
Parameters
f A textfile variable. The system uses the standard file input if f
is omitted.
v The name of a variable or component of a structure whose type is not
FILE and does not contain a component of type FILE.
Description
The procedure readln (f) reads zero or more values from a textfile and
then advances the current position to the beginning of the next line.
The operation performs implicit data conversion if v is not type char,
string, or PAC. The call readln(f,v1,...,vn) is equivalent to:
read(f,v1,...,vn);
readln(f);
If the parameter, v , is omitted, readln simply advances the current
position to the beginning of the next line.
Example
readln(file)
readln(file,variable)
readln(file,variable1,...,variablen)
readln(variable)
readln(variable1,...,variablen)
readln
