PEEK Statement Details
 
Syntax
  PEEK(address)
 
The returned value is an integer in the range 0-255. The argument address
is a value in the range 0-65,535. The argument address is treated as the
offset from the current default segment (as set by the DEF SEG statement).
 
If the argument is a single- or double-precision floating-point value
or a long integer, it is converted to a two-byte integer.
 
The PEEK function complements the POKE statement.
