card = Card(m%)
card = UShort(m%)
card = UWord(m%)
| card | : card expression |
| m% | : 32-bit integer expression |
All three functions perform the same task, namely limiting a 32-bit integer to 16 bits by clearing the bits 16 to 31.
OpenW 1 : Win_1.FontName = "Courier"
Dim a% = 100000, m% = 67631, s% = 32

Print Bin$(Card(m%), s%) // 00000000000000000000100000110000

LoCard() is synonymous with these three functions and can be used instead.
