-The ''MEMSET'' commands calls a built-in routine that sets //length// number of bytes in memory to //fill_value// starting from //source_address//. The same functionality can be achieved with ''[[fornext|FOR ... NEXT]]'' and ''[[poke|POKE]]'', but ''MEMSET'' is considerably faster.+The ''MEMSET'' command calls a built-in routine that sets //length// number of bytes in memory to //fill_value// starting from //source_address//.
