===== REM  =====

===== SYNTAX =====
     REM [comment]
     ' [comment]

==== PURPOSE ====


The ''REM'' keyword is used to include explanatory remarks in the source code of a program.
In the text of any comment you want to include, that is optional, a space is required 
between the ''REM'' keyword and comment.

You can put a ''REM'' statement alone on a line, or you can put it on a line following 
another statement . The ''REM'' statement must be the last statement on the line. If it follows 
another statement, the ''REM'' must be separated from that statement by a colon ('':'').

You can use a single quotation mark (') instead of ''REM''. This is true whether your comment follows
another statement on the same line or sits alone on a line. However, you cannot continue a 
''REM'' statement by using a line-continuation sequence (''_''). This means that, for a multiple-line 
comment, you need to use as many ''REM''s statements as the lines you comment.



==== EXAMPLE ====
    REM this is a comment
    ' and this is a comment
    PRINT "ok": REM I am printing ok
