Syntax:
STEP
[<numerical expression>]
Description: Command. Executes the specified number of lines of BASIC program.
Remarks:
<numerical expression> specifies the number of program lines to execute, it may be any valid
integer expression in the range [0…255]. If it is omitted a value of 1 is assumed.
The
STEP
command resumes execution at the line number after the last executed line. It executes
the number of lines specified before terminating execution. Execution can be continued by issuing
another
STEP
command or by using the
CONT
command.
If
STEP
is executed when there is no information about the last executed line, for instance after an
END
,
LOAD
or
EDIT
command, then
STEP
will execute the first line of the program.
Examples:
> 10 PRINT “STARTED”
> 20 STOP
> 30 PRINT “CONTINUING”
> 40 PRINT “CONTINUING”
> 50 PRINT “FINISHED”
