removes that error code from the queue. After the error code is an explanation of the error
code, like, but sometimes has more specified information, than the
EXPLAIN?
command. The explanation sent in response to this query can contain variables specified
to a particular error event. See Appendix D for a list of error codes and error messages.
A zero value is shown when the error queue is empty. To read the full contents of the
error queue, do
ERR?
until the response
0,”No Error”
is shown. For terminal users,
the error queue Shows for

0,”No Error”
because error messages are

<string>
(text string explaining the error)

when the error queue is empty.
