Hi, I'm having a little trouble with my IF statement at the end here.



This is probably a really long way of creating this program but whilst I was writing it I realised I didn't know which loop to use to get back from the y$ command at the end to the choice of squares to see.
I would have used GOTO line number but it didn't work.

Thanks

Make subroutines like

Boxes:
`Put box code in here, and put this at the end of your code

Return

`Then at the end, and the beginning put
Gosub Boxes

Ok, not really sure where that goes as didn't work where I put it.
I haven't reached the subroutine tutorial yet so hopefully it will all become clearer soon.

I think this is a good example of where SELECT CASE statements could be used. Here is some quick modifying of your code to see how it would work for you:
