Each variable (except the string variable $) occupies 8 bytes (i.e. 16 4-bit words) of RAM. Data are stored with least significant word first (i.e. at lower memory address).
Value 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 represents both numerical 0 and an empty string. The VAC command initialises all variables with this value. Both of the following statements write this value to the A or A$ variable.
A = 0
A$ = ""
A string variable can hold up to 7 characters.
First 7 bytes (i.e. 14 4-bit words) hold the character codes.
Spare locations are padded with 00.
15th word is not used and contains 0.
The last (16th) word contains the length of the string (non-zero).
This distinguishes the string from the numerical variable, where the last word contains 0.
Examples:
A$ = "ABMN" 02 12 C2 D2 00 00 00 04
A$ = "1234567" 11 21 31 41 51 61 71 07
Numerical values are stored in packed decimal floating point format.
First two 4-bit words contain the last two digits of the exponent, the least significant digit first.
The stored exponent value is biased by adding an offset 100 to put it within an unsigned range.
Third 4-bit word contains the first digit of the biased exponent and the sign of the mantissa:
value = first_digit_of_the_exponent + 5 * sign_of_the_mantissa
List of all possible combinations:
0 - mantissa positive, exponent negative
1 - mantissa positive, exponent positive
5 - mantissa negative, exponent negative
6 - mantissa negative, exponent positive
Next twelve 4-bit words contain the mantissa in range 1.00000000000 to 9.99999999999, the least significant digit first.
The last (16-th) 4-bit word contains 0 to denote the numerical variable (as opposed to the string, where this value is non-zero).
Examples:
A = 1 00 10 00 00 00 00 00 10 (1.00000000000E00)
A = -1 00 60 00 00 00 00 00 10 (-1.00000000000E00)
A = 100 20 10 00 00 00 00 00 10 (1.00000000000E02)
A = -100 20 60 00 00 00 00 00 10 (-1.00000000000E02)
A = PI 00 10 63 56 29 51 41 30 (3.14159265360E00)
A = -PI 00 60 63 56 29 51 41 30 (-3.14159265360E00)
A = 0.01 89 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 (1.00000000000E-02)
A = -0.01 89 50 00 00 00 00 00 10 (-1.00000000000E-02)
A = 1/3 99 03 33 33 33 33 33 30 (3.33333333333E-01)
A = -1/3 99 53 33 33 33 33 33 30 (-3.33333333333E-01)
The string variable $ can hold up to 30 characters.
The string stored in the memory is preceded by string length, and terminated by the $FF end marker.
Example:
$ = "ABCDEFG"
70 02 12 22 32 42 52 62 FF
BASIC line begins with a line number stored in 2 bytes (four 4-bit words) in packed decimal format, ends with an end marker $FF.
BASIC keywords are stored as single byte tokens, numeric values as strings of characters, colons used as statements separators as $FE.
Example:
1234 FOR I=1 TO 49 STEP 1: NEXT I
43 21 0A 82 C0 11 59 41 91 69 11 EF 1A 82 FF
Each time a FOR statement is executed, a FOR control structure described below is pushed on the stack. The stack entry is freed by marking it with an $F when the loop is terminated. There's no stack pointer used, the FOR statement scans the stack for the first unused location instead.
2 words TO value, two last digits of the exponent
1 word TO value, first digit of the exponent and sign
10 words TO value, mantissa
2 words index of the control variable
(00 = variable A, 10 = variable B and so on)
1 word F - free entry, 2 - occupied entry
2 words STEP value, two last digits of the exponent
1 word STEP value, first digit of exponent and sign
10 words STEP value, mantissa
3 words address of the first character after the FOR
statement, it's the place where the NEXT iteration
loop resumes execution
Example:
1234 FOR I=1 TO 49 STEP 1: NEXT I
10 TO value = 4.90000000E01
1 mantissa and exponent positive
0000000094
80 index of the I variable
2 denotes an occupied entry
00 STEP value = 1.0000000E00
1 mantissa and exponent positive
0000000001
662 points to the colon after the STEP 1 statement
Executing a GOSUB statement pushes a 4-word structure described below on the GOSUB stack. RETURN frees the top stack location by marking it with a $F word. The concept doesn't use any stack pointer either, similar to the way the FOR stack is implemented.
3 words address of the first character after the GOSUB
statement (the RETURN point)
1 word F - free entry, 3 - occupied entry
$0000-$007F 128 words general purpose buffer
$0080-$00FF 128 words general purpose buffer
$0100-$010F 16 words variable ANS

A file consists of a name segment followed by one or more data segments.
A name segment begins with a byte
$Dx (file created with SAVE),
$Ex (file created with PUT),
or $Fx (file created with SAVE A),
where x is the file name length (up to 8 characters),
or $F for a file without a name.
Next 8 bytes contain the file name characters.
Last 2 bytes contain the first line number of the BASIC program stored with SAVE.
A data segment begins with a $02 byte, ends with a $F0 byte (when it is the last segment), or a $F1 byte (when more data segments will follow). The number of the data bytes between these pair of characters cannot exceed 63, because the contents of the segment is loaded to the 64-byte buffer at address $0000. This limit doesn't apply to files saved with SAVE A which contain only a single data segment.
A BASIC program consists of a list of BASIC lines. When the file was created with SAVE A each program is followed with a $E0 byte. An empty program is stored as $E0 alone.
File stored with PUT consists of a list of variables separated by $FF bytes. No variable names are stored.
1. BASIC Program stored with SAVE "PROG"
File name segment:
$D4 $2F $31 $2E $26 $07 $FF $10 $FF $10 $00
