SYNTAX

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
