Well, just because you asked. I absolutely LOVE Subroutines. Its kinda like
SharedLibraries for the Mac or .DLLs for the PC. I stick commonly used
Information in different files, so instead of increasing size I just jump
to that subroutine. Or say I am using Law of Cosines I just Set a varible,
say ABC, to 1 in a program, say TrigCos, and ask Does ABC equal one? If so,
dont ask for stupid information just get to checking and dont forget to set
ABC to 0 ASAP!!!!
Usually I also put my Menus and docs in seperate files. I hate it when it
takes the 86 forever to compile that why I uses the most and on long if
statements they can prevent you from getting out of memory.

Size and Speed I like. easy to read, I dont like
