| STOP Statement Details |
|
| Syntax |
| STOP |
| |
| STOP statements can be used anywhere in a program to terminate |
| execution. |
| |
| When running in the QuickBASIC environment, the STOP statement leaves |
| files open and does not exit to the operating system. In contrast, a |
| STOP statement in a stand-alone .EXE file does close all files and |
| return to the operating system. |
| |
| If you use the /D, /E, or /X compile options on the BC command line, |
| the STOP statement prints the number of the line where execution |
| stopped, if your program has line numbers. If there is no line number |
| associated with the STOP statement, the most recent line number is |
| printed. If your program has no line numbers, then the line number |
| printed is 0. |
| |
| In the past, STOP statements were used for debugging. QuickBASIC's |
| new debugging features make this use of STOP unnecessary. |
