The program will ask the user to enter the input. The user will enter the value that the user
wants to assign to the variable or string.
REM Statement
REM statement is used to enter remarks or comments in the program.
Syntax
REM My first program
It will display My first program on the output screen.
Control Statements
The control statements are used to change the order of the execution of the commands of
the program. There are four control statements:
GOTO
IF...THEN
IF... THEN... ELSE
ELSE IF with IF... THEN
Let’s read about these statements in detail.
GOTO
GOTO statement is used to transfer the control of a program from one statement to another
statement.
Syntax
GOTO <Line number>
Example
1 A=5
2 B=6
3 C=A+B
4 D=A*1
5 GOTO 3
6 END
In the above program the execution will move back to line number 3 whenever the program
executes line number 5.
IF... THEN
IF... THEN statement is used to display the output
based on comparisons.
Syntax
IF <Condition> THEN <Statement>
Example
IF A > 10 THEN B = B - 1
IF A < 10 THEN B = B + 1
If the value of A is more than 10 then 1 would be subtracted from the value of B.
If the value of A is less than 10 then 1 would be added to the value of B.
