NEW
Abbreviation:
TYPE: Command
FORMAT: NEW
Action: The NEW command is used to delete the program currently
in memory and clear all variables. Before typing in a new program,
NEW should be used in direct mode to clear memory. NEW can also
be used in a program, but you should be aware of the fact that
it will erase everything that has gone before and is still in
the computer's memory. This can be particularly troublesome when
you're trying to debug your program.
BE CAREFUL: Not clearing out an old program before typing
a new one can result in a confusing mix of the two programs.
EXAMPLES of NEW Command:
NEW (Clears the program and all variables)
10 NEW (Performs a NEW operation and STOPs the program.)
