===== EXIT ✓ =====

===== SYNTAX =====
     EXIT [number]

==== PURPOSE ====


The ''EXIT'' command is used to stop execution of a specific block of code
and transfer control of the program to the first statement following that block.
It is often used inside ''FOR...NEXT'', ''WHILE...WEND'', or ''DO...LOOP'' loops 
to terminate the loop prematurely when a certain condition is met. The optional parameter
''number'' specifies the number of inner blocks you want to exit. If missing,
the implicit value is 1.

The command is useful to exit when an error or unexpected condition occurs, and it
can be used to end the code block and handle the error appropriately. In some cases, 
using ''EXIT'' can make your code more efficient by avoiding executing unnecessary 
statements. ''EXIT'' allows you to create more complex control flows and make dynamic decisions 
during program execution.  Excessive use of ''EXIT'', however,
can make your code more difficult to read and maintain.
