Any way to send variables to a function/proced

Archiver

All (BS2) variables are global. You needn't pass a variable to a
GOSUB, all variables are available to all code at all times.
Further, there is always one and only one instance of a variable, so
if you modify it anywhere its new value is available everywhere.
(Since you don't pass variables, the concepts of pass by reference
or pass by value are without meaning for PBasic).

I think he's referring to C like stlye coding. Where
you can create procedures with arguments and return
values.
