Stepping Over, Into, and Out

ATEasy has three "stepping" operations for use when debugging:

• Step Over

• Step Into

• Step Out

These commands are accessible from the Debug menu.

To step over means to stay at the same level in your procedure, and to bypass going into subroutines. Each statement is an item, an atomic operation.

To step into means that you do go into subroutines. If there is no subroutine present when you press the Step Into button, the program just steps to the next statement.

To step out means to go to the end of the subroutine you are in and return to the next statement in the calling procedure.
