GAP( ) |
Return Odd Parity String |
GAP(string$[,ERR=stmtref])
Where:
string$ |
Character string to convert to Odd parity. |
stmtref |
Program line number or statement label to which to transfer control. |
Odd parity value of string.
The GAP( ) function converts and returns the character string expression in Odd parity. This function is typically used when dealing with communication lines. It is not normally used in operating systems since the standard communications drivers handle the generation of parity.
The number of one-bits in each byte of the character string determines the parity of data. Odd parity data always has an odd number of one-bits in each byte of data.
GEP( ) Return Even Parity String
