Running your program to a specific line
You can run from one point in a program to another point by using one of the following methods:
- Set a breakpoint and use the
GO
command. This command runs your program from the point where it stopped to the breakpoint that you set. Any breakpoints that are encountered cause your program to stop. TheRUN
command is synonymous with theGO
command. - Use the
GOTO
command. This command resumes your program at the point that you specify in the command. The code in between is skipped. - Use the
JUMPTO
command. This command moves the point at which your program resumes running to the statement you specify in the command; however, the program does not resume. The code in between is skipped. - Use the
RUNTO
command. This command runs your program to the point that you specify in theRUNTO
command. TheRUNTO
command is helpful when you haven't set a breakpoint at the point you specify in theRUNTO
command.
