request

A reserved variable holding the list of request values for the current record.

Syntax

read request

or

readln request

Comments

If no request block is defined, the next floating point value in the data file is stored in memory as the only component in the current request. Otherwise, the request block is executed to read in the components of the current request.

Multiple request can be read in succession. The file reader keeps track of each request separately and remembers the order in which they are read.

Example

do numrequests  // for each one
{
     read request  // read it
}
