RIGHT$ Function
Purpose:
To return the rightmost n characters of string x$.

Syntax:
RIGHT$(x$,n)

Comments:
If n is equal to or greater than LEN(x$), RIGHT$ returns x$. If n equals zero, the null string
(length zero) is returned (see the MID$ and LEFT$ functions).

Examples:
10 A$="DISK BASIC"
20 PRINT RIGHT$(A$, 5)
RUN
BASIC
Prints the rightmost five characters in the A$ string.
