What is the equivalent of the return statement for a batch file subroutine?

Syntax. It is common to use the command EXIT /B %ERRORLEVEL% at the end of the batch file to return the error codes from the batch file. EXIT /B at the end of the batch file will stop execution of a batch file. Use EXIT /B < exitcodes > at the end of the batch file to return custom return codes.
batch-file Echo @Echo off @echo off prevents the prompt and contents of the batch file from being displayed, so that only the output is visible. The @ makes the output of the echo off command hidden as well.
Use double percent signs ( %% ) to carry out the for command within a batch file. Variables are case sensitive, and they must be represented with an alphabetical value such as %a, %b, or %c. Required. Specifies one or more files, directories, or text strings, or a range of values on which to run the command.
%%parameter : A replaceable parameter: in a batch file use %%G (on the command line %G) FOR /F processing of a command consists of reading the output from the command one line at a time and then breaking the line up into individual items of data or 'tokens'.
It is:
goto :eof This is understandably unusual for somebody accustomed to normal programming languages.
I found this info here.

I think that it is:
exit /b [exitCode] Not just because it is more understandeable to use, but also because exit /b (and just exit also) may return an exitCode (ERRORLEVEL) value to the caller program.
In my modest opinion, goto :eof is a strange patch that should not be used...
