Associated keywords

Keywords are either:

COMMANDS : operations that are executed directly.

FUNCTIONS : operations that are brought into action as arguments

in an expression.

OPERATORS : acting upon mathematical arguments.

BASIC converts all keywords entered in lower case letters to UPPER CASE when a

program is LIS T ed. The examples shown in this chapter use UPPER CASE, since

this is how the program will appear when LIS T ed. Hence you should enter using

lower case, as you will be able to spot typing errors more readily since the mis-typed

keyword will still be displayed in lower case when LIS T ed.

For a comprehensive guide to AMSTRAD CPC6128 BASIC, see the Concise BASIC

specification SOFT 967.
