Overview
The GetHighByte function retrieves the high byte (8 bits) from the source data word.
Syntax/Parameters
Syntax
byte = GetHighByte ( word data );
Parameters
data
A word (or any integer form). The value is treated as a 16 bit word data type.
Return Value
Returns a byte representing the high byte of data.
Remarks
The GetHighByte function performs the mathematical equivalent of:
value = (data & 0xFF00) >> 8;
Passing the GetHighByte function an inappropriate parameter (such as a string) results in a hard runtime error, and the script will abort.
