QBasic has limited support for user-defined data types ,⁶ and several primitive types used to contain strings of text or numeric data. [3] [4] It supports various inbuilt functions. For its time, QBasic provided a state-of-the-art IDE, including a debugger with features such as on-the-fly expression evaluation and code modification.
A subset of QuickBASIC 4.5, named QBasic, was included with MS-DOS 5 and later versions, replacing the GW-BASIC included with previous versions of MS-DOS. Compared to QuickBASIC, QBasic is limited to an interpreter only, lacks a few functions, can only handle programs of a limited size, and lacks support for separate program modules.
QB64 implements most QBasic statements, and can run many QBasic programs, including Microsoft's QBasic Gorillas and Nibbles games. [3] Furthermore, QB64 has been designed to contain an IDE resembling the QBASIC IDE. QB64 also extends the QBASIC programming language to include 64-bit data types, as
Visual Basic 2.0 was released in November 1992. The programming environment was easier to use, and its speed was improved. Notably, forms became instantiable objects, thus laying the foundational concepts of class modules as were later offered in VB4. Visual Basic 3.0 was released in the summer of 1993 and came in Standard and Professional ...
Gambas is an object-oriented dialect of the BASIC programming language, and an integrated development environment that accompanies it. [5] Designed to run on Linux and other Unix-like computer operating systems, [6] its name is a recursive acronym for Gambas Almost Means Basic.
[5] [6] [7] This is an implementation of Microsoft BASIC (BASIC-69). [3] It was used to introduce children from France to programming in the 1980s (see Computing for All, a 1985 French government plan to introduce computers to the country's 11 million pupils). [8] [9] Three languages were mainly taught: LSE, BASIC and LOGO.
Basic-256 is a project to learn the basics of computer programming. [1] The project started in 2007 inspired by the article “Why Johnny can't code” by David Brin, which also inspired the creation of Microsoft Small Basic. [2]
