The parameter/mode strings used in the

setMode( )

getMode( )

setGraph( )

, and

setTable( )

functions do not translate into other

languages when used in a program. For example, when you write

a program in the French

Language

mode then switch to the Italian

Language

mode, the program will produce an error. To avoid this

error, you must substitute digits for the alpha characters. These

digits operate in all languages. This appendix contains the digit

substitutions for these strings.

The following examples show how to substitute digits in the

setMode( )

function.

Example 1: A program using alpha parameter/mode strings:

setMode

Graph

Sequence

Example 2: The same program, substituting digits for those

strings:
