  LIST VARIABLES

Outputs to the terminal (and to a log file if open) a list of the currently defined program variables, data types, and their values. If no variables are currently defined, an information message to this effect is output.

e.g. After the STATISTICS command has been used, a number of program variables are automatically defined, so the following output may be obtained:

Main menu: ENTER COMMAND [CLOSE LOG]:list
r ##MINIMUM =   .8627196E+02
r ##MAXIMUM =   .9997000E+03
r ##MEAN =   .5117823E+03
r ##RMS =   .5739011E+03
r ##SIGMA =   .2597079E+03
r ##SKEWNESS =   .1288433E+00
r ##TOTAL =   .5117823E+07

The data type is given first. The following letters are used with the corresponding meaning for the data type of the value:

i Integer value
l Logical (boolean) value
r Floating point real value
s Character string value
u Data type unknown (e.g. enter with -sym from the command-line
* Invalid variable (This should be rarely seen, but can occur if there is no more space available for storing string values.)
