128k basic had renumber, the original basic didn't...

but you could do some really cool stuff where you used maths to gosub a certain line, ie Gosub 1000 + (player*100) which was very handy! So you'd do stuff like assign an range of numbers for certain things and have them at the top of the program - Let AICode = 2000 - Then you'd Gosub AICode + (AIState * 100) which would then give you 100 lines of code per AI state.. all good stuff!


Yeah yeah... no functions or procs though!
