A textbook for learning BASIC

This book was written to help introduce the beginner to programming in BASIC and was written in 1988. This covers very basic commands like PRINT, LPRINT, and LLIST; loops; subroutines; nested loops; two- and three-dimensional arrays; strings; files; and medium and high-resolution graphics.Since this was written as a textbook, there are ways to check your understanding. Each chapter has a review, list of key terms, quiz with answers directly after, and exercises (with answers to some of these in the back. This book is designed to master the fundamentals of BASIC programming.If you are not a computer enthusiast, then this is probably not for you. This is for people who want to learn BASIC programming.
