While

This document describes a macro that can increment register X by the TIXR operation. The macro takes in two parameters, the amount to increment X by and a counter, and uses a WHILE loop to perform the TIXR operation that number of times. When the macro is called with a value of 0 for the amount, it will not generate any code in the expansion.

It is also perfectly OK is a macro doesn't even generate any code; for

example, consider the macro to lay in code for incrementing register


X via the TIXR operation.

MACRO
&INIT INCRX &AMT
&CNT SET &AMT
WHILE (&CNT GT 0)
TIXR X
&CNT SET &CNT - 1
ENDW
MEND

Then the call


INCRX 4
has the expansion

. INCRX 4
TIXR X
TIXR X
TIXR X
TIXR X

and the call


INCRX 0
has the expansion

. INCRX 0
