A **statement** is, as far as BASIC is concerned, a keyword that can be executed in run-time which doesn't return any value. It can contain several [argument](argument)s or no arguments at all.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The arguments in a statement are usually not enclosed with paranteses. When a graphical x-coordinate and y-coordinate is to be specified they are enclosed with paranteses though.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Example(s)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Demonstrates how x- and y-coordinates are enclosed with paranteses (in graphics).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```vb
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SCREEN 13
|
||
|
|
x = 160
|
||
|
|
y = 100
|
||
|
|
PSET (x, y), 15
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Demonstrates how row- and column-coordinates are not enclosed with paranteses (in text).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```vb
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
row = 12
|
||
|
|
column = 40
|
||
|
|
LOCATE row, column
|
||
|
|
PRINT "X"
|
||
|
|
