====== GOSUB ======

===== Syntax =====

<code xcbasic>
GOSUB <label>
</code>

The ''GOSUB'' command calls a subroutine marked by a label. ''RETURN'' will pass control back to the caller. 

<adm note>
Unlike [[subroutines]], labelled code points do not start a new local scope.
</adm>
===== Example =====

<code xcbasic>
' ** subroutines **
GOSUB first_routine
END
	
first_routine:
  PRINT "hello world"
  GOSUB second_routine
  RETURN
		
second_routine:
  PRINT "and hello again"
  RETURN
</code>

<adm warning>
Make sure you use the ''[[END|END]]'' command before your routines if you don't want them to be executed in the normal program flow (like in the example above).
