Example: Subroutine call using string parameter
This example copies a different string literal to a unique address depending upon the given
input. The unique address of this string is saved. The string address is then passed to the
subroutine by using an indirect address. The data type of the subroutine input parameter is
string. The subroutine then moves the string to a different location.
A string literal can also be passed to the subroutine. The string reference inside the
subroutine is always the same.
