If you run it long enough in Qbasic, your gonna get a stack overflow b/c of all the GOTO's without the Returns. I'd assume you'd get the same with Freebasic, except it'd take longer, unless FB doesn't have stack space.

really!? how long, i'll try... + how do returns work

[Z!re]

barok, you're confusing it with gosub.

Goto doesent generate stack overflows.

[xteraco]

i'm confused..so gosub causes overflow..and goto is kool, i think i got it....

[adosorken]

GOSUB causes overflows if it's called recursively enough times since it places its re-entry point on the stack. QB has a very small stack but FB has a gigantic one by default. GOTO is just a JMP...no stack required.

i get it, that makes sense
