how to quit procedure?

aszu · 17 March 2016, 17:37

Hi there,

I'm on stage of experimenting with procedures. I call procedure from main loop
and i have a loop in procedure, so it keeps repeating itself. how do i quit this procedure after a few loops, let's say 5, and then end procedure and go back to main program (loop)?

The easiest way to get a loop is to use FOR whatever condition NEXT

It's available in nearly every BASIC I know of. I haven't used AMOS for a long time but it'll be in there somewhere

If you're in a loop, you can use EXIT to get out, and let the procedure finish gracefully. EXIT IF <condition> is handy too.

Or to exit disgracefully ......

If COUNT = 5: Pop Proc : Endif

should do it (useful if there is something you don't want to do at the end of the procedure.

well i tried exit but the procedure is more complicated and there are more loops

I'll give a try to the volvo_one's one

insert near the end a check for LMB, if LMB then exit routine
