Byte Numbers from 0..255 [TP]
The data type Byte is a subrange of the type Integer and represents
the integers from 0 to 255. It is a Turbo Pascal extension. Variables
of type Byte occupy one byte and are always considered to be unsigned.
Integer and Byte values can be used interchangeably, except when
passed as parameters.
-------------------------------- Example ---------------------------------
var
Iota,Able,Fred : Byte;
begin
Iota := 32; { Iota gets 32 }
Able := -32; { Able gets 224 }
Fred := $807F; { Fred gets 127 }
end.
