explain the terms END and DIM as used in BASIC?

Question

please answer in detail.i hv to prepare it for my board exams.

Answer 1

END = stop or EXIT

DIM = set a dimensioned array

This isn't rocket science!

END

Answer 2

END indicates the end of the program. It occurs at the end.

DIM defines the dimensions of an array and allocates memory for the dimension variable. For example :

DIM a(8)
This statement defines a one dimensional array with 8 elements.

DIM X(2,7)
This statement defines a two dimensional array with 14 elements.

Answer 3

END means the program shoud stopped executing. No line after END will execute.


DIM stands for Declare In Memory.

For example

DIM X

will declare a variable in memory named X. You can assign values to X and use it in your program. This variable is declared in addressable memory (RAM ) of your computer and will be lost if you close your program without putting it onto some non-volatile drive.

Answer 4

In VB, DIM is a dimension that we use to declaire a variable or to set a dimension array
ex.
DIM a, b

and End is the end for every sub to be executed....

Sub sub_name()
***compose of codes that will be executed
End Sub

Answer 5

DIM to declare a local,global variable
and END for ending (i.e., stopping) a function

Answer 6

Come on... If you're in a BASIC class these are almost the first things you learn.

DIM - define a new variable
END - well, uh, END (stop)
