PAUSE
Syntax
Section titled “Syntax”PAUSE <value>Just as in Sinclair basic, this command pauses the execution for the given number of frames (1 frame equals to 1/50th of second in Europe, 1/60th of second in the US: this is usually in sync with the electricity AC frequency) or until a key is pressed.
Bear in mind the number 0 is actually taken as 65536. Currently this sentence uses the Sinclair BASIC ROM, so it needs interruptions enabled.
Example:
PRINT "Press any key"PAUSE 0: REM waits for a Key pressed or for 65536 framesRemarks
Section titled “Remarks”- This function is 100% Sinclair BASIC compatible.
