What does it do? The addition VARY and its addition RANGE have exactly the same effect on a WHILE loop as the other obsolete additions VARYING and RANGE of the statement DO . The addition VARY can be used more than once in a WHILE statement.



Latest notes:Instead of the addition VARY, the statement ASSIGN should be used in the loop with the addition INCREMENT.
