7.9 TRY AGAIN

INTERCAL-72 C-INTERCAL CLC-INTERCAL J-INTERCAL
no version 0.25+ no no

The TRY AGAIN command is a very simple command with many limitations; its effect is to place the entire program in a loop. If it exists, it must be the very last command in the program (it cannot even be followed by syntax errors), and it causes execution of the program to go back to the first command. If the TRY AGAIN command is abstained or for some other reason doesn’t execute when reached, it exits the program without the error that would usually be caused by going past the last line of code.

The gerund for TRY AGAIN is TRYING AGAIN.
