TRON-TROFF

Syntax

TRON
TROFF

Purpose

To trace the execution of program statements.

Remarks

As an aid in debugging, the TRON statement (executed in either the direct or indirect mode) enables a trace flag that prints each line number of the program as it is executed. The numbers appear enclosed in square brackets. The trace flag is disabled with the TROFF statement (or when a NEW command is executed).

Example

TRON
Ok

LIST
10 K=10
20 FOR J=1 TO 2
30 L=K + 10
40 PRINT J, K, L
50 K=K+10
60 NEXT
70 END
Ok

[10] [20] [30] [40] 1   10   20
