So what happens next ? Well, a `POKE 9216,255` will show you that you're plotting on line 1 ! And once line 1 has been filled, you'll plot on line 65 ! And then on line 129 ! Then back to first section of 64-lines but on line 8+1=9, then on line 16+1=17, etc.

If you run the above code, your screen will be filled and A will point to 16384 (or $4000) which is the start of page 2.
|

|
||||
To sum it up, the logical structure in RAM is as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
1. There are 3 sections of 64 lines beginning at lines 0, 64 and 128
|
||||
2. A Y-line subindex is set to zero
|
||||
3. A Y-line index is set to zero
|
||||
4. Section number is set to zero
|
||||
5. RAM holds the three lines corresponding to the section + index + subindex
|
||||
6. Section number is incremented by 64
|
||||
7. Back to step 5, three times
|
||||
8. Then 8 bytes are wasted
|
||||
9. Y-Line index is incremented by 8
|
||||
10. Back to step 4, eight times
|
||||
11. Y-line SUBindex is incremented by 1
|
||||
12. Back to step 3, eight times
|
||||
|
||||
In code that would be

10 HGR: A = 8192
|

20 Y0 = 0 : N0 = 0 : REM Y-SUBINDEX AND COUNTER
|
||||
30 Y1 = 0 : N1 = 0 : REM Y-INDEX AND COUNTER
|
||||
40 S = 0 : NS = 0 : REM SECTION NUMBER AND COUNTER
|
||||
50 HPLOT 0, S + Y0 + Y1 TO 279, S + Y0 + Y1: REM DRAW A WHOLE LINE
|
||||
60 PRINT S + Y0 + Y1;": ";A" ";: S = S + 64: A = A + 40
|
||||
70 NS = NS + 1 : IF NS < 3 THEN GOTO 50
|
||||
80 A = A + 8: REM HERE 8 BYTES ARE NOT USED
|
||||
90 Y1 = Y1 + 8
|
||||
100 N1 = N1 + 1: IF N1<8 THEN GOTO 40
|
||||
110 Y0 = Y0 + 1
|
||||
120 N0 = N0 + 1: IF N0<8 THEN GOTO 30: REM WE COULD HAVE USED Y0 ONLY SINCE IT'S ALWAYS EQUAL TO N0
|
||||
|
||||
Notice how the HPLOTs draw the lines in the same order as the `POKE`s in the previous programs.
|
||||
|
||||
The starting address of a line Y in hires page 1 is found using the following formula:
|
||||
|
||||
S = INT(Y/64)
|
||||
Y1 = INT( (Y - 64 * S) / 8)
|
||||
Y0 = INT(Y - 64 * S - 8 * Y1)
|
||||
A = 8192 + S * 40 + Y1 * 128 + Y0 * 1024

This structure might seem confusing and it's true that most of the time programmers will use lookup tables to find the starting address of a line instead of using the above formula.
|
||||
|
||||
Nonetheless, even such an interlaced structure could be used without resorting to lookup tables, depending on the use case.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if we're on a line that's a multiple of 8 (that's the first 3 columns in the table above), all we have to do to find the address of the 8 next lines is to add 1 to the most significant byte (MSB) of the address.
|
||||
|
||||
For instance, if we draw bitmaps starting from a line that is a multiple of 8, like it might be the case when displaying tiles in a game, we only need the address of the first line, while the address of the other lines have the same LSB but an MSB that is incremented by one each time.
|

Another example is when you write a fast routine to clear the hires screen. You'll want to skip the hires holes for two reasons:
|
||||
1. It's 512 bytes that don't need to be cleared and that will waste cycles
|
||||
2. You may want to use these 512 bytes to store data and so you don't want to erase it
|
||||
|
||||
The position of the screen holes is also very regular. First they are all within the third section of the screen. Then their address range is either `$xx78-$xx7F` or `$xxF8-$xxFF`.
|
||||
|
||||
We make use of this information by looping down from `#$F7` (thus skipping the second kind of hole area) to `#$00` but skipping to `#$77` once we reach `#$7F`.
