QBasic 1.1: DECLARE Statement

Syntax

DECLARE {FUNCTION | SUB} name [([parameterlist])]

Description / Parameter(s)

name The name of the procedure.
parameterlist One or more variables that specify parameters to be passed to the procedure when it is called:
 
variable[( )] [AS type] [, variable[( )] [AS type]]...
variable A Basic variable name.
type The data type of the variable (INTEGER, LONG, SINGLE, DOUBLE, STRING, or a user-defined data type). ANY allows any data type.
DECLARE is required if you call SUB procedures without CALL. QBasic automatically generates DECLARE statements when you save your program.

Example

' The program REMLINE.BAS illustrates declaring FUNCTION and SUB ' procedures. To view or run this program, load REMLINE.BAS using the Open ' command from the File menu.
