STOP RUN, EXIT PROGRAM , GO BACK, NEXT STATEMENT AND CONTINUE STATEMENT.

 

STOP RUN:

It’s the last executable statement of the main program. It returns control back to OS.

EXIT PROGRAM

It’s the last executable statement of sub-program. It returns control back to main program.

GO BACK

It can be coded in main program as well as sub-program as the last statement. It just gives the control back from where it received the control.

 

NEXT Statement

It transfers control to next sentiment after the nearest period.

Example

IF A3 = B3

   IF A1 = B1

     NEXT STATEMENT

        IF A2 = B2

        ELSE

        DISPLAY “NO CONDITION “

        END-IF

    END-IF

END-IF.

     DISPLAY “NEXT STATEMENT

In above example first “IF” is true then it check 2nd “IF” is true then it come out from IF loop and display the DISPLAY STATEMENT. Else it check for 3rd “IF” statement.
