To con~inue proqram execu~ion af~er a
Con~rol-C
has
been
~yped, or a STOP or END s~a~emen~ has
been executed.
Execution resumes at the point where
the
break
occurred.
If the break occurred after a promp~
from an
INPUT
s~a~ement,
execution
continues
with
the reprinting of ~he promp~
(1
or prompt
s~ring).
CONT is usually used in
conjunction
with
STOP
for
debugging.
When
execution
is
stopped,
intermediate values may be examined and
changed
using
direct mode statemena.
E~ecution may be
resumed with COt~ or a direct mode
GOTO,
which
resumes
execution
a~
a specified line number.
With the Extended and Disk versions, CONT may be
used to continue execution after an error.
CONT is invalid if the program has
been
edited
during
the
break.
In
8K BASIC-80, execution
canno~ be CONTinued if a direct mode
error
has
occurred during the break.
See example Section
2.61,
STOP.
