it
ain't, but it does illustrate the
ac
tion
of
the PRINT
stat
ement when
the
printable
items are separated
by
semicolons. ;., this format, the items are adjacently d isplayed with a
minimum separat
ion
between them. This capabiliry
is
very handy
fo
r creating
"natural"
looking
output
li.e.
output
which flows together).
NOTE:
If
the length
of
the information display
ed
exceeds the space ava

{25 characters), the items

capacity,
the semicolon indi
cat
es that the

and
that
any new o
ut

ut
{from the ne

PRINT statement) should join t
