{REM | '} text
Usage Notes
■ Remarks are ignored when your program runs unless they contain
metacommands.
■ REM statements are not compiled, but instead appear exactly as typed
when the program is listed.
■ A remark can be inserted on a line after an executable statement if it
is preceded by either:
• A single quotation mark (')
• REM preceded by a colon (:REM)
■ Do not use the single-quotation form of REM in a DATA statement because
it will be considered valid data. See: ◄DATA Statement►
■ You can branch from a GOTO or GOSUB statement to a REM statement.
Execution continues with the first executable statement after the REM
statement. See: ◄GOTO Statement► ◄GOSUB...RETURN Statement►
