SPACE instruction
The SPACE instruction inserts one or more blank lines in the listing
of a source module, thus separating sections of code on the listing
page.
- sequence_symbol
- Is a sequence symbol.
- number_of_lines
- Is an absolute expression that specifies the number of lines to be left blank. You can use any absolute expression to specify number_of_lines. If number_of_lines is omitted, one line is left blank. If number_of_lines has a value greater than the number of lines remaining on the listing page, the instruction has the same effect as an EJECT statement.
The SPACE statement itself is not printed in the listing unless
a variable symbol is specified as a point of substitution in the statement,
in which case the statement is printed before substitution occurs.
A blank line is equivalent to a SPACE 1
statement.
