RESET	Performs the initialization described above. RESET discards all remembered loop/return addresses and resets changeable options and traps.
CLEAR	Discards all or specified variables after performing a RESET.
BEGIN	Closes all files after performing a CLEAR and RESET. BEGIN also resets the DATA statement pointer.
START	Initializes the entire workspace after performing a BEGIN, CLEAR, and RESET. The workspace may be resized during a START. A new program may be loaded, or an empty program will exist.
