We can use unsigned numbers using the Unsigned() function.
Syntax:
Unsigned(nNum1,nNum2,cOperator) --> result of cOperator operation on nNum1,nNum2Example:
see oat_hash("hello") + nl
# Jenkins hash function - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenkins_hash_function
func oat_hash cKey
h = 0
for x in cKey
h = unsigned(h,ascii(x),"+")
h = unsigned(h,unsigned(h,10,"<<"),"+")
r = unsigned(h,6,">>")
h = unsigned(h, r,"^")
next
h = unsigned(h,unsigned(h,3,"<<"),"+")
h = unsigned(h,unsigned(h,11,">>"),"^")
h = unsigned(h,unsigned(h,15,"<<"),"+")
return hOutput:

We can determine the decimals numbers count after the point in float/double numbers using the decimals() function.
Syntax:
Decimals(nDecimalsCount)Example:
x = 1.1234567890123
for d = 0 to 14
decimals(d)
see x + nl
