SUB

Declares a BASIC subprogram.

Syntax

SUB subprogram_name[ (parameter_list)] [STATIC ] … END SUB

Comments

subprogram_name is the name of the subprogram (up to 40 characters).

parameter_list is a list of parameters in the following form: variable[() ] [AS typename] [, variable[() ] [ AS typename]]…

The keyword STATIC directs QBasic to retain the value of the subprogram’s local variables between calls.

Example

CALL Test (1, 5.5, "TEST")
END

SUB Test (a AS INTEGER, b AS SINGLE, c AS STRING)
  PRINT a, b, c
END SUB
