Expressing literal values
A literal value is any part of a statement or expression that is to be used exactly as it is, rather than as a variable or a Lingo element. Literal values that you encounter in Lingo are character strings, integers, decimal numbers, cast member names and numbers, frame and movie names and numbers, symbols, and constants.
Note: The value()
function can convert a string into a numerical value. The string()
function can convert a numerical value into a string.
Each type of literal value has its own rules.
