Before you go messing up your robot, you should read the section of the PBASIC manual about math, and you will find your answer.
I have read, re-read and recently reviewed the PBASIC manual's section on math, but I still don't know what will happen to the robot controller if, for example, I were to take the p1_y variable and change it from a byte variable, into a word variable, and give it a value larger than 254. Will any extended bits be trunkated before going through the serout command?
