Compatibility Step 6 -- Multi dimensional Arrays
This one was not straight forward because javascript doesn't have a simple syntactic construct to create a multi dimensional arrays. As of today though, QuiteBASIC has just that. For example:
10 DIM A(5,6,4)
declares a 3D array.
The array can then be used in LET commands and in expressions just like you expect it to. For example:
20 LET A(1,2,3) = 64
30 PRINT SQR(A(1,2,3))
will print 8.
This only works with the DIM command. The ARRAY command just declares a 1D array of dynamic size. And this only works with the parenthesis syntax for array indices. So A[1,2,3] is a syntax error.
I also added the TAB(x) function which is typically used in PRINT commands to format the output. For example:
40 PRINT TAB(5); "Hello!"
will print five spaces followed by "Hello!".
