A textbook for the BASIC programming language

This is a book written for enthusiasts rather than the average computer user. The book was published back in 1986, so the average user today will not use BASIC. If you have an old computer and wish to learn this language, this will help.The good thing about this book is that it has questions and quizzes to test your knowledge. At the end of each chapter are a summary, a glossary, questions to aid understanding (with some of the answers in the back of the book), and a quick quiz. The quick quiz answers are at the end of each chapter also. Of these, some simply give the correct answer, whereas others explain why a particular answer is correct.Since this is a programming language not taught much anymore, the average users would not always understand this text. If you are an enthusiast and still use your Apple IIe or Radio Shack TRS-80, then this book will be usable.
