It may be from 1 to 254 characters long. <br /> <br /> '''Note:''' The CHKSUM function uses the same check sum algorithm that is used by Comet's terminal protocol. <br /> <br /> '''Example:'''<br /> LENGTH 1 &amp; LOCAL VALUE$<br /> .<br /> VALUE$ = CHKSUM(DATA$)<br /> <br /> In the above example, the CHKSUM function will return the block check character for the data value stored in the string variable DATA$. This block check character will be stored in the string variable VALUE$.</div>
