Editing BASIC (section)

==== Miscellaneous ====
; <code>REM</code> : holds a programmer's comment or REMark; often used to give a title to the program and to help identify the purpose of a given section of code.
;{{anchor|USR}} <code>USR</code> ("User Serviceable Routine"): transfers program control to a [[Machine code|machine language]] subroutine, usually entered as an alphanumeric [[String (computer science)|string]] or in a list of DATA statements.
; <code>CALL</code> : alternative form of <code>USR</code> found in some dialects. Does not require an artificial parameter to complete the function-like syntax of <code>USR</code>, and has a clearly defined method of calling different routines in memory.
; <code>TRON</code> /  <code>TROFF</code>: turns on display of each line number as it is run ("TRace ON"). This was useful for [[debugging]] or correcting of problems in a program. TROFF turns it back off again.
; <code>ASM</code> : some compilers such as Freebasic,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.freebasic.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=KeyPgAsm|title=KeyPgAsm|website=FreeBasic Wiki|access-date=August 2, 2017}}</ref> Purebasic,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.purebasic.com/documentation/reference/inlinedasm.html|title=Inline x86 ASM|website=Pure Basic|access-date=August 2, 2017}}</ref> and Powerbasic<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.powerbasic.com/help/pbcc/using_assembly-language_in_your_code.htm|title=Using assembly-language in your code|website=Power Basic|access-date=August 2, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170802164032/https://www.powerbasic.com/help/pbcc/using_assembly-language_in_your_code.htm|archive-date=August 2, 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref> also support [[Inline assembler|inline assembly]] language, allowing the programmer to intermix high-level and low-level code, typically prefixed with "ASM" or "!" statements.
