Breaking a Calculation in Two
This statement does four things:
PRINT "glasses of soda =", OUNCES / 8
- Writes glasses of soda to the monitor.
- Gets the value 448 from the variable OUNCES.
- Divides that value by 8 (but leaves the contents of OUNCES unchanged).
- Writes the result, 56, to the monitor.
Often part of a calculation is put in a variable
and later on used in the rest of the calculation.
This divides the work between several program statements.
