mechanism.
Usage
move_r_to_l (count,source,source_index,target,target_index)
Parameters
count A positive integer expression whose value is the
number of elements to move.
source The source array from where elements will be moved.
source_index An integer expression whose value is the index into
the source array from where the move will begin.
The value must be greater than or equal to the
index of the first element in the source array, and
less than or equal to the index of the last element
in the source array minus the move count.
target The target array to where elements will be moved.
target_index An integer expression whose value is the index into
the target array to where the move will begin. The
value must be greater than or equal to the index of
the first element in the target array, and less
than or equal to the index of the last element in
the target array minus the move count.
Description
The syntax of the procedure is identical to the syntax of the predefined
procedure strmove.
move_r_to_l moves the elements from right to left. In a right to left
move, the first element to be moved is the right-most (highest indexed)
element, and the last element to be moved is the left-most (lowest
indexed) element.
Even if the elements of the array to be moved are arrays themselves, the
array will be moved as a single item.
The following diagram shows the order of copying for move_r_to_l.
