  Error 4: Out of data

  A READ statement ran out of DATA statement values.

[Paul Panks]

Cool, thanks. I changed the ,,,,'s in the DATA statements to 0's
and it compiled and ran fine. I guess some READ statements work
differently, but at least in QBasic you can use "," in place of
0's to save space. Not sure about FirstBasic, though (the compiler that
gave the error). I was too lazy to try it out under PBasic or QB.
