GO COMMAND
You can use the GO command to do the following:
1. Resume processing of a MAR K command operation that was halted.
2.
3.
Resume processing of a BASIC program that was halted by:
a. a PAUSE statement,
b. executing statements in step mode (see RUN Command),
c. some error conditions, or
d. your pressing the ATTN key.
End a MARK command operation or BASIC program before it reaches its
normal termination point.
You can resume processing by pressing EXECUTE on a blank line. The GO command,
however, allows you to resume processing in any of three modes of operation (normal,
step, or trace). Thus, you can change the operating mode with the GO command.
Program execution can be continued with the next sequential statement or at a
statement number specified in the GO command. You can also change the decimal
position that activates rounding (see RD= Command).
To terminate the execution of a system command or a BASIC program, the GO
command has this syntax:
GO END
END closes input and output files, thus maintaining the integrity of the files. After
the files are closed, no program statements are executed.
To continue execution of an interrupted operation, the GO command has this syntax:
GO [line-num] [,
{~~E~
}] LRO=n]
TRACE LPRINT]
where:
line-num is the number of the statement at which processing is to
be
resumed.
If this number is omitted, processing begins with the next sequential statement
or where the command was interrupted.
