How can I combine two 8-bit values into one 16-bit value? One example is to read two ports and combine the data into one 16-bit word. One port would be the low byte and the other port would be the high byte. Can it be done in BASIC, or does it have to be done in assembly. I know a function exists in Bascom to split a 16-bit value into to 8-bits values, but what is its compliment? Question
