Line 294:

END SUBROUTINE CHECK !As TROUBLE is declared within CHECK.</lang>

~~Thus, whereas~~ previously a problem might not be solvable via the existing code because of excessive fixed-size storage requirements, now reduced demands can be made and those only for subroutines that are in action. Thus larger problems can be handled without agonising attempts to cut-to-fit, the usage for scratchpads such as B being particularly natural as in Algol from the 1960s. But on the other hand, a run might exhaust the available storage (either via the stack or via the heap) somewhere in the middle of job because its particular execution path made too many requests and the happy anticipation of results is instead met by a mess.
