project. In some programs where we may have several sections used for testing, or
we need the ability to turn test code on and off, inserting a conditional compilation
block will facilitate the quick removal and restoration of test code.
We can use #DEFINE to create a conditional constant
When _TestMode is defined as 1 the code nested in #IF-#THEN will run, otherwise
it will not even be compiled or downloaded to the BASIC Stamp.
Be aware that enabling conditional compilation blocks like the one shown above will
increase the program size – if you’re going to be creating a large program you should
enable them from the beginning so that you don’t run out of space when you need
them later.
#DEFINE _TestMode = 1
#IF _TestMode #THEN
#ENDIF
