Abort

Usage

Abort[ ] generates an interrupt to abort a computation.


Notes

• You can call Abort anywhere within a computation. It has the same effect as an interactive interrupt in which you select the abort option.
• You can use Abort as an "emergency stop" in a computation.
• Once Abort has been called, Mathematica functions currently being evaluated return as quickly as possible.
• In an interactive session, the final result from an aborted computation is $Aborted.
• You can use CheckAbort to "catch" returns from an abort.
• New in Version 2.
