[[ON...GOSUB]] is a control-flow statement that branches to a line or label in a list depending on a numerical expression.

: '''ON''' {{Parameter|numericalExpression}} [[GOSUB]] {{Parameter|labelOrNumber}}[,{{Parameter|labelOrNumber}}][,...]

{{PageDescription}}
|
|
* {{Parameter|numericalExpression}} represents the ''line'' or ''label'' that the program should branch to: 1 branches to the first line or label in the list, 2 branches to the second, etc.
|
|
* The procedure must be used after the number value is determined or in a loop to monitor current user events.
|
|
* [[RETURN]] returns to the next code statement after the [[ON...GOSUB]] statement. [[END]] or [[SYSTEM]] can be used to end program.
|
|
* '''Note:''' [[SELECT CASE]] provides a much more convenient way of doing this task.
|
|
|
|
|
|
==QBasic/QuickBASIC==
|
|
* In QuickBASIC 4.5 the list could contain a maximum of 60 line numbers or labels, while '''QB64''' has no limit.

with a = 2 here we are...return to line after ON.
|
|
Also notice the RETURN statement that can be used with GOSUB!
|

{{OutputEnd}}
|
|
|
|
:''Explanation:'' Since ''a'' equals to 2 it goes to the second item in the list (''hereweare'') and branches the program to there. Try changing 'a' to 1 or 3.
