|  Re: Commodore Basic's oddnesses
It is not about the violation of some standards. It is about violation of the natural logic. It is very obvious to have integers in FOR. And, for example, "FOR i=1 to 2 step 1" naturally means 2 times so as "FOR i=2 to 1 step 1" means 0 times.
BTW I can name 4th odd thing in Commodore Basic. It doesn't allow GOTO from loops! See an example
10 do while 1
20 goto 10
30 loop
This code causes "out of memory error".  So I had to use GOTO and IF for loops in NOTEPAD+4.
