maxbytes

Purpose

Returns maximum memory to be used.

Format

y = maxbytes()

Returns:

y (scalar) – maximum memory to be used.

Global Input

__maxbytes:

(scalar) maximum memory to be used.

Examples

y = maxbytes;
print y;

    100000000.000

Remarks

maxbytes() returns the value in the global scalar __maxbytes, which can be reset in the calling program.

maxbytes() is called by Run-Time Library functions and applications when determining how many rows can be read from a dataset in one call to readr().

maxbytes() replaced the obsolete command coreleft(). If coreleft() returns a meaningful number for your operating system and if you wish to reference it, set __maxbytes = 0 and then call maxbytes().
