Difference between Full BASIC and Microsoft BASIC

Input and Output

LPRINT statement does not exist.
On this BASIC, text output can be sent to a printer using the File Menu of the text output window.

`INPUT a_string_constant ; a_variable`
is not acceptable on Full BASIC. Correct syntax is as follows:
`INPUT PROMPT a_string_expression : a_variable`
Example
`INPUT "A=" ; A`
should be changed to
`INPUT PROMPT "A=": A`

The delimiter character followed by a format in a PRINT USING statement is not a semicolon but a colon.
Example.
Not
`PRINT USING "#.#####"; A`
but
`PRINT USING "#.#####": A`
Format strings are not identical. The common format characters are only three, '#','.' and '^'.
Refer to PRINT USING
