Syntax


  '         comment\

Description


Comments in ARMbasic can follow a single quote character.  All text after the single quote to the end of the line is ignored by the compiler.

Example

\

AB = "this is a
string" ' double
quotes are for strings, including single character strings
x = x +
1
' this is a comment for the instruction to increment
x

' this entire line is a comment

Differences from other BASICs

  • none from VisualBASIC
  • none from PBASIC
  • most early BASICs used the REM statement, which ARMbasic does not support
