Peter,

countof cars will give you the static array count.

len cars is the same as len cars[0]

Code: OxygenBasic

1. include "asm.inc"
2. window 640,480,1
3.  
4. string cars = {"BMW","VOLVO","SAAB","FORD","OPEL","RENAULT","MERCEDES"}
5.  
6. for i=0 to < countof cars
7.     text 10,i*12,10,cars[i]
8. next
9.  
10. for i=0 to 6
11.     text 90,i*12,10,cars[i]
12. next
13.  
14. waitkey
15. winExit
16.

There are a few more ofs, mostly used for diagnostics, returning numbers or strings.

Here is the current list:

sizeof
offsetof
countof / spanof
bytesof
typecodeof

typeof
structureof / encodingof
prototypeof
recordof
