| //by Richard Russell, October 2006//\\ \\ BBC BASIC's 32-bit integers are all signed, i.e. they represent values between -2147483648 (&80000000) and +2147483647 (&7FFFFFFF); values outside this range can only be represented by floating-point numbers. Occasionally you may want to treat a 32-bit integer as if it was unsigned, i.e. representing a value between zero (&00000000) and +4294967295 (&FFFFFFFF), for example this could be necessary when interpreting a UINT value returned from a Windows API function.\\ \\ The function listed below performs the necessary conversion. It takes as a parameter a normal 32-bit integer and returns the equivalent unsigned value:\\ | //by Richard Russell, October 2006//\\ \\ BBC BASIC's 32-bit integers are all signed, i.e. they represent values between -2147483648 (&80000000) and +2147483647 (&7FFFFFFF); values outside this range can only be represented by floating-point numbers.
