Actually, DECLARE SUB and DECLARE FUNCTION statements are not needed in any QB64 statements. That's an old QBasic holdover.
You can REM them all out and your code examples should run just fine.

Yes, I have noticed that by now. I personally think that is wrong, because the declaration of functions and procedures at the beginning of the source code shows what is coming.
Ok, but I still do not understand why one function needs a type identifier and the other does not.
