#12 READ with innapropriate variable names doesn't error

Open
opened 2 years ago by ChipMaster · 1 comments

This needs a bit more research but I want to record it so it doesn’t get forgotten. Basically this caused unexpected results:

READ BASE, COUNT
PRINT BASE, COUNT
DATA 1, 2

Resulted in:

 0      45

I think BASE & COUNT are reserved for something and ought to have thrown an error.

READ definitely should have thrown an error!
