I inherited some code and I noticed that the programmer consistently placed his
equates outside of the program flow, in other words, the equates would never be
executed. Nevertheless, the DO get evaluated. For example:
LABEL1:
FOR I = 1 TO 10
PRINT 'HELLO WORLD'
NEXT
RETURN
EQU THIS TO THAT, YIN TO YANG
LABEL2:
I = 1
LOOP
I += 1
WHILE I LE 10 REPEAT
RETURN
See how the EQU would never be "executed"? Since it works, I assume the
tokenizer reads the whole program and picks up the equates, but what I want to
know is, is there some reason for doing it this way, perhaps better performance
or less memory used?
