BASIC (Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) [1] is a family of general-purpose, high-level programming languages designed for ease of use. The original version was created by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz at Dartmouth College in 1963.
BASIC is a high-level easy-to-use programming language whose original version was created by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz. On the other hand, Java is a high-level, object-oriented language developed by Sun Microsystem and is currently owned by Oracle.
It was developed by Dartmouth mathematicians John George Kemeny and Tom Kurtzas as a teaching tool for undergraduates. BASIC was intended to be a computer language for generalists to use to unlock the power of the computer in business and other realms of academia.
BASIC, computer programming language developed by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz at Dartmouth College in the mid 1960s. One of the simplest high-level languages, with commands similar to English, it can be learned with relative ease even by schoolchildren and novice programmers.
Mathematicians John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz, operating a General Electric GE-225 mainframe, executed the first program in a language of their own devising: Beginner's...
The BASIC programming language was invented in 1964 by two professors at Dartmouth College – mathematician John Kemeny and computer scientist Thomas Kurtz. Their goal was to create a simplified programming language usable by:
Invented by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz of Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, BASIC was first successfully used to run programs on the school’s General Electric...
That's when mathematicians John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz successfully ran the first program written in their newly developed BASIC (Beginner's All-Purpose Symbolic Instruction...
