<div class="markdown_content"><p>I found some structured text code which contained this statement:</p> <p><code>bHidden:= TRUE(*NOT _somevariable*)</code></p> <p>I haven't seen <code>TRUE()</code> used like a function before, and I also haven't seen the enclosing asterisks <code>* *</code> before. What do they do?</p> <p>(sorry if this is a duplicate question, I don't know what words to use to search for this syntax)</p></div>
