The If command could also use a Goto command to transfer program control to
a specified Lbl (label) command.
Repeating a Loop Immediately
The Cycle command immediately transfers program control to the next iteration
of a loop (before the current iteration is complete). This command works with
For...EndFor, While...EndWhile, and Loop...EndLoop.
Lbl and Goto Loops
Although the Lbl (label) and Goto commands are not strictly loop commands,
they can be used to create an infinite loop. For example:
As with Loop...EndLoop, the loop should contain commands that let the
function or program exit from the loop.
Changing Mode Settings
Functions and programs can use the setMode() function to temporarily set
specific calculation or result modes. The Program Editor’s Mode menu makes it
easy to enter the correct syntax without requiring you to memorize numeric
codes.
Note: Mode changes made within a function or program definition do not
persist outside the function or program.
Setting a Mode
1. Position the cursor where you want to insert the setMode function.
2. From the Mode menu, click the mode to change, and click the new setting.
The correct syntax is inserted at the cursor location. For example:
setMode(1,3)
