The following DarkBASIC Classic code fails at line 2:

A=10
B=-A

How can we make B the negative of A?

How about this:

B = 0 - A

It's the programmer's life:
Have a problem, solve the problem, and have a new problem to solve.

The example in the first post would work in DBP, but I guess DBC didnt have support for that at the time. Scen B's seems the simplest.

You could make a function to make it easier in the future;



That should work.
