GoSub...Return Statement

Calls a subroutine that is indicated by a label inside a Sub or a Function. The statements following the label are executed until the next Return statement. Afterwards, the program continues with the statement that follows the GoSub statement.

Syntax:


GoSub label[:]

Parameters:

label: A line identifier indicating where to continue execution. The scope of a label in that of the routine it belongs to.

The GoSub statement calls a local subroutine indicated by a label from within a subroutine or a function. The name of the label must end with a colon (":").


  Sub/Function foo
      ' statements
      GoSub label
      ' statements
      Exit Sub/Function
  label:
      ' statements
      Return
  End Sub/Function

Si'l programa atopa una instrucción Return que nun va precedida de GoSub, LibreOffice Basic devuelve un mensaxe de fallu. Use Exit Sub o Exit Function p'asegurase de que'l programa sala d'una Sub o Function enantes de llegar a la siguiente instrucción Return.


L'exemplu siguiente demuestra l'usu de GoSub y Return. Al executar una seición de programa dos vegaes, ésti calcula'l raigañu cuadráu de dos númberos qu'introdució l'usuariu.

Example:


Sub ExampleGoSub
Dim iInputa As Single
Dim iInputb As Single
Dim iInputc As Single
    iInputa = Int(InputBox("Escriba'l primer númberu: ","EntradaNúmberu"))
    iInputb = Int(InputBox("Escriba'l segundu númberu: ","EntradaNúmberu"))
    iInputc=iInputa
    GoSub SquareRoot
    Print "La raíz cuadrada de";iInputa;" ye";iInputc
    iInputc=iInputb
    GoSub SquareRoot
    Print "La raíz cuadrada de";iInputb;" ye";iInputc
    Exit Sub
SquareRoot:
    iInputc=sqr(iInputc)
    Return
End Sub
