In the context of Text UI,
the EGL
converse statement
performs the following actions:
- Presents a text form.
- Waits
for a user response.
- Receives the input.
- Continues
processing with the statement that follows the converse statement.
A
converse statement is always
valid in a called
program and always runs in non-segmented mode; but if you are running
a main
program that is segmented, the
converse statement
is not valid in these kinds of code:
- A function that has parameters,
local storage, or return values
- A function that is invoked
(directly or indirectly) by a function that
has parameters, local storage, or return values.
