===== defining labels ✓ =====

===== SYNTAX =====
     number instruction
     label: instruction
     [label:] instruction

==== PURPOSE ====


In ugBASIC it is possible to indicate the position within a program with the use of 
so-called "labels". The labels can be represented in the BASIC standard, i.e. with numeric 
labels, or with alphanumeric labels, and are used to jump within specific positions of the program.



==== EXAMPLE ====
    100 PRINT "oK!": GOTO 100
    begin: PRINT "OK!" : GOTO begin
    [begin:] PRINT "OK!" : GOTO begin
