GO-TO vs GO-SUB?

[johnsvensk]

Hello,
I am reading the example code to my Nixie-LED-M, and I wonder what is the difference between GOTO and GOSUB? I learnt a bit of BASIC back in the previous century, but 25 years does things to your memory… 😉

All the best,
John

GOTO simply jumps to another line, GOSUB keeps track of where it came from (on a stack, presumably), so when the interpreter encounters a RETURN, it goes back to the last place GOSUB was called.
