Small doubts CoolBasic

Post by Chopepo »

What is the paradigm of CoolBasic?

Is it mandatory?, Object-oriented?

And the second question is ...

How do I use the command "CRC32 and EOF?

Thanks in advance

CoolBasic is not object-oriented, but procedural.

CRC32 returns a 32bit checksum of a file or a memory block. It can be used to validate the authencity of data or detect corruption/modifications. Just feed it with the filename/path (or memblock). There is an example in English here: http://www.coolbasic.com/cbmanual/commands/crc32.html

EOF(file_handle) is a function that returns TRUE if the file has been read to the end. English example here: http://www.coolbasic.com/cbmanual/commands/eof.html

The current CoolBasic is a procedural language. However, there is a new product, CoolBasic V3, in development, and it'll be fully object oriented language.
