Description
Clear sets one or more bytes in memory to a certain value (the default value is zero (0) if not specified). The starting address is taken from a reference to a variable or array element.

Differences from QB
- New to FreeBASIC
- The keyword CLEAR was used in QB to erase all variables, close all files, and optionally change the stack size. This use is not supported in FreeBASIC.
