On a 6502 (PET, Apple II...) it's not that deep
because of
the 1-page stack. ISTR about 5 levels of GOSUBs were possible
before you ran the risk of stack overflow, but it might have
been as deep as 8.
Assuming the stack is cleared by RUN then you can nest 40 to
50 levels of GOSUBs in most 6502 BAISCs.
FOR ... NEXT is the stack hog, you can usually only nest that
15 deep or less.
With C= BASIC you have lass room as the top 10 bytes or so of
the stack are reserved for float to ASCII conversion.
