The END Statement

The statement PRINT 10 + 5 adds 10 to 5 and then prints the result 15 on the monitor. Here is what you see on your computer's screen when you run this program:

Don't get lost in the details. The part that the program printed is the number "15". All the other stuff is unimportant and depends on what computer you are using.

Here is the program again:

PRINT 10 + 5
END

The last statement, END signals the end of the program. It is obvious where this program ends, but it is harder to tell with longer programs, so the END statement is necessary for them.
