	This function can be used to get the user number of an sdaemon's master thread.		This function can be used to get the user number of an [[Sdaemons\|sdaemon]]'s master thread.

	The $DaemonMasterNumber function accepts no arguments. The $DaemonMasterNumber function returns the same value as the $DaemonParentNumber function [[$DaemonParentNumber]], except in the case where the parent thread, itself, has a parent. In such a case, the $DaemonMasterNumber method follows the chain of parents to the highest level, that is, to the parent that does not, itself, have a parent.		The <var>$DaemonMasterNumber</var> function accepts no arguments.

	If the thread issuing $DaemonMasterNumber is not an sdaemon, or is an sdaemon but is not performing work for another thread via a Daemon object or a <var>$COMMxx</var> function, or is an asynchronous daemon, the $DaemonMasterNumber function returns a -1 value.

			===Syntax terms===
			<table class="syntaxTable">
			<tr><th>%usern</th>
			<td>A numeric variable that is set to the daemon master's user number, or it is set to -1 if not called from a daemon.</td></tr>

			==Usage notes==
			<ul>
			<li>The <var>$DaemonMasterNumber function</var> returns the same value as the <var>[[$DaemonParentNumber]]</var> function, except in the case where the parent thread, itself, has a parent. In such a case, the <var>$DaemonMasterNumber</var> method follows the chain of parents to the highest level, that is, to the parent that does not, itself, have a parent.

			<li>If the thread issuing <var>$DaemonMasterNumber</var> is not an sdaemon, or is an sdaemon but is not performing work for another thread via a <var>[[Daemon class\|Daemon]]</var> object or a <var>$COMMxx</var> function, or is an asynchronous daemon, the <var>$DaemonMasterNumber</var> function returns a -1 value.

			<li>The $DaemonMasterNumber method has a <var>Daemon</var> class method equivalent: <var>MasterNumber</var>. The $function and method can be used interchangeably, whether the daemon was created with a <var>$COMMxx</var> function or a <var>Daemon</var> object.

			<li>This $function is new in Version 6.8 of the <var class="product">[[Sirius Mods]]</var>.
			</ul>

	The $DaemonMasterNumber method has a Daemon class method equivalent: MasterNumber. The $function and method can be used interchangeably, whether the daemon was created with a <var>$COMMxx</var> function or a Daemon object.
