A nonfatal error condition is a type of error that occurs when a BASIC program encounters a condition that is resolved by the BASIC run-time package, although not to the specific need of the program line of code.
The most common occurrence of this is the message:
Variable has not been assigned a value, zero used. |
This particular instance occurs if a reference is made to a variable on the right side of an = before being referenced (assigned) on the left side of an =.
Example(s)
dim array(15) for i = 1 to 15 array(i) = x next |
This results in 15 nonfatal error messages:
[B10] in program "name", Line n: Variable has not been assigned a value; zero used. |
