What is a "stack oferflow error" ?
It happens when my program runs once and it goes back to loop and to goto a subroutine. How do you fix it? Thanks in advance? So much!

Sounds like you've created a never ending loop by accident and blown the memory.

Thanks in advance.
All the Best,

what u did is cause the program to create new instances of a loop,and because of the nature of the program, it needs to store where it left from the last point in code so it can jump back, but you probably didn't let the code jump back properly, for instance.. a stack overflow will be caused by this...



this is the correct code



another reason why goto and gosub are bad:p if I were to put this in my program I would keel over:p, this is how something like this should be written



do you understand now why you got that overflow error...I dunno if I helped any..maybe someone else can explain better
