NEXT variable
Category BASIC
Type Statement
Description occurs at the end of a "for..next" construct and causes the iteration counter to increment and branches to the corresponding "for" statement to decide whether to terminate.

The "for..next" construct may also be exited using the "exit" statement.

The "step" statement allows the increments of the loop to be changed. For example, "step 2" increments the variable by 2 when the "next" statement is encountered.

"step" can be a negative number, decrementing the variable at the "next" statement. A "step" of zero does not execute the "for..next" loop.
