Cause and Suggested Remedies
A command was given in immediate (direct)
mode that
is
valid only in program mode. The
following are invalid in immediate mode:
DATA.
DEF
FN.
GET.
GET#. INPUT. INPUT#.
Enter the desired operation
as
a (short) pro-
gram and
RUN
it.
A
function
is
passed
one
or
more
parameters
that
are
out
of range. This
message also occurs if the
USR
function
is
referenced before storing the subroutine ad-
dress at memory locations 1 and
2.
Check the ranges given in Chapter 4 for the
function in question. Change the program to
be
sure that the argument
will
always
be
with-
in range. or add a check before the
fu
netion
reference to make sure that the argument
is
allowed. If
USR
error. insert statements to
POKE
the subroutine address before the
USR
reference.
A
NEXT
statement
is
encountered that
is
not tied to a preceding
FOR
statement. Either
there
is
no
FOR
statement or the variable in
the NEXT statement
is
not in a corresponding
FOR
statement.
The
FOR
part of a
FOR
...
NEXT
loop must
be
inserted or the offending
NEXT
statement
deleted.
Be
sure that the index variables are
the same at both ends of the loop.
A
READ
statement
is
executed
but
ail of the
DATA statements in the program have already
been
read.
For each variable in a
READ
state-
ment. there must
be
a corresponding DATA
element.
Add more DATA elements or restrict the
number of
READs
to the current number of
DATA elements. Insert a
RESTORE
statement
to reread the existing data. Or add a flag at the
end of the last DATA statement (any value not
used
as
a DATA element may
be
used for the
flag value) and stop READing when the flag
has
been
read.
