Explanations of Error Messages
APPENDIX
D
This appendix contains a partial list of True BASIC error messages, in alphabetic order.
Error messages referring to statements or features not introduced in this book are omitted.
The number following some messages is the error number for errors (exceptions) that occur
when the program runs. These numbers can be used with the WHEN structure and
EXTYPE function .
Argument for SIN, COS, or TAN too large. (-3050)
The argument for the sine, cosine, or tangent function is so large that range reduction results
is almost complete loss of precision.
Argument types don’t match.
You’re calling a routine with some arguments, but earlier in your program you defined or called
the same routine with different arguments. Either you’re giving a different number of arguments
in the calls, or their types are different – that is, you’re passing strings instead of numbers,
or vice versa. Check this call against preceding calls, and against the routine’s definition.
Array too large (5001)
You’ve tried to redimension an array to a size larger than the original DIM statement.
Change the DIM statement, or use MAT REDIM.
ASIN or ACOS argument must be between 1 and -1. (3007)
The arcsine and arccosine functions are not defined for arguments larger than one in absolute
value.
