documentation (length)

[fred]

I'm new at newLISP so i give it a try :)

In Users Manual and Reference v.9.9.8 i did read the description of the length function:



length applied to a symbol returns the length of the symbol name.

Applied to a number, length returns the number of bytes needed in

memory to store that number: 4 for integers and 8 for floating point

numbers.



Shoud it not be 8 for 64 bit integers?

Hi Fred!



The move to 64 bit integers was release 9.0.0 (1 year ago) - perhaps that number should have been updated then.
