Re: Solar System
Hi Davey,
After copying the source and running it, i got 3 consequtive error messages.
The starting combi /* had to be inserted at the beginning of the file,
In the section “Planets”, there were missing statements “end if” and “next i”.
Adding these made the progam run nicely

Re: Bug in pages or in program ?
Hi Ton,
After the first call to the function “ButtonBar”, the “FILL ALPHA” parameter remains zero, whence the circles are drown, but without any color strength.

Re: Dealing with error messages
Hi Geordie, As far as i know, SB has no error trapping like "on error goto.....". In the example mentioned by you the error may be evaded by using something like the following snippet: f$="Data/messages.txt" ! i=0 if not file_exists(f$) then return while data_exist(f$) i+=1 ! file f$ input .mess$(i)...

A flexible calculation tool (part 2)
Calculations around an annuity loan requires 4 variables: the principal sum “C”, the interest rate “i”, the amount of periods “n”, and the payment per period “PpP”. The usual formula is the one that calculates the “PpP” as a function of the other 3 variables: PpP = i * C / ( 1 - (1+i)^(-n) ). If we ...
