Hey, I am having a problem with FREAD. The WRITE function works
perfectly, however, the FREAD function seems to do absolutely nothing.
Here is the sample code that I am trying:

DIM A(512)
DIM B(512)

A(512)=9

WRITE ($6000, A, 512)
FREAD ($6000, B, 512)

PRINT A(512)
PRINT B(512)


This always prints B(512) as 0 or whatever value I declare it to be.
Am I doing something obviously wrong? There wasn't much documentation
on FREAD in the manual.

> PRINT A(512)
> PRINT B(512)

The size of FREAD, FWRITE is in bytes

You declared the array as integers, and arrays start at 0, so you never
wrote A(512) or read B(512). I'm sure B(0) = A(0) ... A(127) = B(127)

thank you so much. i knew it was something obvious that i was being
completely ignorant to.
