RUN
Command
SYNTAX: RUN [line]
PURPOSE: To begin the execution of a program.
REMARKS: RUN resets the numeric variables to zero, string variables to null, resets the interrupt pending flag
and runs the current program.
RUN changes the memory reserved by the last CLEAR statement.
RUN causes parts of the program to be compiled at speed execution. A typical program will compile
at about 800 lines per second.
RUN may also be used at run time with the optional line number. The effect will be to clear all
variables and reserved space. Great care should be taken when using RUN with the optional line
number.
NOTE: The program must be compiled by executing RUN before performing a RUN [line].
RELATED: none
EXAMPLE: 10 PRINT 7/1

ERROR: <Syntax> – if line not found when using RUN [line]. (Nonsense line number will be displayed.)
