<h1>Description</h1>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
The bank commands allow you to perform high-speed data operations on a block of memory. This is useful for writing your own compression/decompression routines, passing and receiving data to and from a DLL and more. Banks start at 0 and finish at size-1.
<br />
<br />
The data types available for use with a bank are:
<br />
<br />
Byte - takes up one byte. Values can be in the range 0 to 255.
<br />
Short - takes up two bytes. Values can be in the range 0 to 65535.
<br />
Int - takes up four bytes. Values can be in the range -2147483647 to 2147483647.
<br />
Float - takes up four bytes.
