  Re: anyone know how to check free space on RCX?
 
That is very interesting Jason. It is interesting that mm_free_mem() returns a 16bit value using a 32bit return code. Both int and long are 32bit value on most computers/compilers these days; short would be a 16bit value; and char would be an 8bit (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: anyone know how to check free space on RCX?
 
While the declaration for mm_free_mem is int mm_free_mem(void) The fact is that the RCX has only 32K of memory available. 32K in hex is 0x8000... there's never a need for more than 4 digits in hex. Looking at key_handler() in kernel/program.c (the (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: anyone know how to check free space on RCX?
 
Albert Huang, Sorry for the confusion. "most significant" = upper 16 bits and "least significant" = lower 16 bits (the free memory is a 32 bit value). If you write the values out, you will get the 32 bit value (both values are hex) ... for example: (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I'm under the impression that those two calls just display the same value, in decimal first and (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
