Teaches how to read, write, and understand the programming language, BASIC, used in the new personal-size microcomputer. Includes applications and games for the hobbyist or for anyone who wants to use these small computers in home, school, or office. No special background required. And access to a computer is unnecessary. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

I suppose the authors could make this claim because Beginners All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code (BASIC) was designed as a simple language which could be learned in a few short hours.
Albrecht et al developed the programs in this book in Microsoft BASIC on a MITS Altair 8800B computer. This turned out to be the same version of BASIC that was used in my TRS-80 Model I Micro Computer. Radio Shack called it Level II Extended BASIC.
The material in this book is presented in short sections called frames, following the programmed learning style championed by behaviorist, B. F. Skinner. Each frame introduces something new about BASIC, asks the reader a question, and lets the reader fill in the blank. Correct answers are given following a dashed line.
Questions at the end of each chapter let you know if any frames need to be repeated. A final self-test provides the student feedback about his or her overall understanding of BASIC.
To make a long story short, I'm glad I didn't try to learn BASIC programming without the aid of a personal computer. The computerless approach taken in this book didn't cut it for me.
