16.2.8 Forcing Errors
The CAUSE ERROR statement allows a program to ar-
tificially generate an error when the program would not
otherwise do so. You can force any BASIC run-time er-
ror. You must specify the number of the error the compiler
should force; the error numbers are listed in Appendix B. The
following statement forces an end-of-file error (ERR=11) to
occur:
CAUSE ERROR 11%
You can use this feature to debug an error handler during
program development, as shown in the following example:
