RET - Return A Value To Another USERCALC Or Program#
This command allows a Function or Qualifier to return a value to another UserCalc or program.
The RET command appears only at line 99999 in Functions and Qualifiers.
Functions may return a Number, Char(acter), Date or Boolean (True, False) variable.
Qualifiers may only return Boolean (True, False) variable.
As line 99999 may only be used one time, users must refer to a variable in the Return statement. That variable contains the Number, Char(acter), Date or Boolean result.
