RE: Error in the EVAL Statement? (when + is used more than once)

Your turn to miss a character. :)

The "7" at the end of the first line is appended to the 500 on the second
line to make the number 7,500.  The expression is evaluated as 502.34 +
7,500 = 8,002.34.

However, I tried this now:

c                   z-add     502.34        amount1
c                   z-add     0             amount2
c                   eval      amount2 = amount1 + + 7
c                             500.00
You know the result? 8002.34
