PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE (AND FORMATTING IN GENERAL). THE ERROR MESSAGE I RECEIVE IS IN THE CODE AS A COMMENT. ALSO, IS MY "DIM AS INTEGER" LINE REDUNDANT?
BEGIN CODE:
OPEN "DATA.TXT" FOR OUTPUT AS #1
PRINT #1, "LUCK TIME"
PRINT #1, "------ ------"
DIM LUCK AS INTEGER
DIM TIME AS INTEGER
I = 1
DO
LUCK = I * 2
TIME = I * 3
PRINT #1, USING "### &"; LUCK; TIME
I = I + 1
LOOP UNTIL I > 20
DO
LOOP UNTIL INKEY$ <> ""
'ERROR: "TYPE MISMATCH IN MODULE HELPME AT ADDRESS 062C:00BE"
END

Remove the dog symbol from print #1, using = &
Dim as Integer is not redundant unless you have the common defint i in the beginning of your code

You don't have two numbers formatted in the template

PRINT #1, USING "Luck = ### Time = ###"; LUCK; TIME
The & character denotes a full string value print. \ \ is a limited length string value.
