Answer» I used to be pretty good with DOS but cannot remember what this means. I would appreciate your help.Quote from: jntutor on July 25, 2010, 07:25:28 PM I used to be pretty good with DOS but cannot remember what this means. I would appreciate your help. something is a variable ( a LOCATION in RAM). A VALUE is stored at that location. 153 for example, could be stored there. echo %something% will display the value 153. RAM is Random Access Memory. All values stored in RAM, disappear when the MACHINE is shut down. IBM REFERS to RAM as working memory. The HDD ( Hard DISK Drive stores information while the machine runs and while the machine is shut down. X is a variable. %X% extracts the value stored at X. QED |
