2.13 Macros
What is a macro?
A macro is a sequence of individual instructions
which have together been assigned a name of their
own. G, M and H functions or L subprogram names
can also be used as macros.
When a macro is called during a program run, the
instructions programmed under the program name
are executed one after the other.
Use of macros
Sequences of instructions that recurr are only
programmed once as a macro in a separate macro
block and once at the beginning of the program.
The macro can then be called in any main program
or subprogram and executed.
