Creating A Script File

IF

Syntax: IF <condition>

Informs the program to perform the command(s) on the following line(s) if the
specified condition is true. The else command may be used in conjunction with if.
For example:

if (integer > 3)
goto routine1:
else
goto routine2

If more than one command line is to be associated with if, insert a line containing the
{ (open curly brace) character before the first command line and a line containing the
} (close curly brace) character following the last command line. For example:

if (integer > 3)
{
inc integer
goto routine1:
}
else
goto routine2:

The if command may be used on the same line as else, for example:

if (N == 1)
X = 2
else if (N == 2)
X = 4
else
X = 1

If and associated else commands may be nested up to 32 times.

Syntax: INP <string> <variable>
