Useless argument

(1/4) > >>

Hydrophilic:
What BASIC 7.0 statment accepts an optional argument but ignores it?

Steve Gray:
Is it "REM"?

But then, it's not specific to Basic 7...

Hydrophilic:
Nice try but no.  This is a legitimate argument (unlike REM and BEND).  Also I will give another clue, the command is not unique to BASIC 7.0 but you won't find it in BASIC 2.0.

That should narrow it down!

So it's shared with Basic 4.0 & 4.5 ?

nikoniko:
This may not be what you mean, but MONITOR will ignore anything you append to it. Likewise, RETURN will do the same.

For instance, this won't throw a syntax error:

1000 if funds < 100 then return the CD I bought yesterday:else monitor my spending more closely but keep the CD
