Commodore PET - New; Run

Example:
410 LOAD "OVLY1"
NEW
The NEW command c1ears the PETs memory of the current program.
Format:
NEW
When a NEW command is executed. the PET performs a CLR for ail varia-
bles but also reinitializes ail pointers that are keeping track of the program state-
ments stored in memory. The program itself is not physically deleted. These NEW
operations are automatically performed during a LOAD process.
Issue a NEW command when vou
want to begin creating a stored program
entered from the keyboard and there
is already a program in memory. If a NEW
were not issued. subsequent program entry lines
would simply modify the exist-
ing program.
Example:
NEW
NEW
is always issued in immediate mode. If a NEW command is issued
from
within a program. the program will "self destruct"; it will clear itself out just
as if a NEW command had been issued from the keyboard. Of course. the program
terminates at
that point.
RUN
The RUN command begins execution of the program currently stored in
memory.
Format:
RUN {(blank) Begin execution at the lowest-numbered line.
line Begin execution at the specified line.
When the RUN command is executed in immediate mode. the PET performs
a
CLR of ail program variables and performs a RESTORE. then begins executing
the program. This
is by far the most common use of the RUN commando
