The following is an example of how to use Continue statement in While loop:

While a > 0

If b = 0 Then Continue While

End While

GoTo Statement

A GoTo statement causes execution to transfer to the speciﬁed label. GoTo keyword

should be followed by the label name.

GoTo <label>

The following example illustrates how to use GoTo statement:

GoTo Target_Label

Print(“This will not be printed.\n”)

Target_Label:

Print(“This will be printed.\n”)

GoSub/Return Statements

GoSub used to call a subroutine at speciﬁc label. Program execution is transferred to the

speciﬁed label. Unlike the GoTo statement, GoSub remembers the calling point. Upon

encountering a Return statement the execution will continue the next statement after the

GoSub statement.

GoSub <label>

Return

Consider the following example:

Print(“The rst line.”)

GoSub PrintLine

Print(“The second line.”)

GoSub PrintLine

Terminate

PrintLine:

Print(“\n”)

Return

The program will begin with executing the ﬁrst print statement. Upon encountering the

GoSub statement, the execution will be transferred to the given PrintLine label. The pro-

gram prints the new line and upon encountering the Return statement the execution will

be returning back to the second print statement and so on.
