The code below is looking for the ending (lowest level ")") it runs part way through the byte table and then resets. I don't know why; can anyone help?

version: 02.2.1.1 - because later versions don't work with my rev b development board (another unanswered q)

ByteFrom = 0
ByteTo = 0
ParenLevel = 1
repeat
byteto = byteto + one
debug [menu(byteto)]
if menu(ByteTo) = "(" then
parenlevel = parenlevel + one
elseif menu(ByteTo) = ")"
parenlevel = parenlevel - one
endif

until parenlevel = 0

debug [int bytefrom, int byteto]
end
============================

I have not walked through your table and counted ( vs ), but as your count initializes the paren level to 1, so if you don't get back down to zero at your last ) then you will walk through random memory and possibly fault at some point with a bad pointer or the like... So I would check your count at the end and see if your counts are right...

I know nothing about the dev boards, so I will leave that one for someone from Basic Micro. (I currently use boards from Lynxmotion and mostly Atom Pros...)

How did it run for you?

When I first posted I had not run the program. So I broke out my backup board with the Atom on it and tried it on the beta and had a few issues, so I then tried it on 5.3.1.0 and after I fixed an error in the code. That is on the debug statement the words: Int were replaced with DEC. It compiled fine in debug mode and ran until the end and printed out the two numbers.

Looks like I will have to find my way through upgrading to 5.3.1.0 .

Thanks for checking that, Tom
