BASIC sucks.

If you want an old language use assembly. If you want an easier one use FORTRAN.


Nuff said

This might be a stupid question, but BASIC == VB.NET?

Just because it's old doesn't mean it isn't used all the time.


BASIC sucks because it teaches horrible programming habits. If you want a list of them I may give you one later. Try doing a google search in the meantime.

That doesn't matter. If you attempt later to learn other things you'll still carry on those habits.

Yet someone shouldn't put himself it a cage of monkeys and live and speak with them for a few decades, because when he gets out it will be much harder to speak English.

True story.

In my opinion you'd be better off learning how to program in assembly than BASIC. Pretty much anything that can run BASIC can also be programmed directly in assembly too.

That just shows your insecurity. Stop doing it or go away.


What Stravant said. Assembly can be used for any old device, and is much more fun and gives you a better understanding.

BASIC sucks. And BTW, I don't think my calculator can handle Assembly when you type it directly into it (Although I hear it can actually handle it).

However, BASIC has this horrible thing called 'Goto', where that's the only way to repeat code besides rerunning another program, and......

Well, anyway...

SIGH. BASIC isn't used much any more. Do you think there is a reason for that?

I use basic sometimes. In fact, I've got my TI-82 graphical calculator in front of me now.

I also used a variant of it to interact with some electronics one day at school.

"By refusing to learn BASIC you're cutting yourself off from like all computers from the late 60s to mid 80s. That's like, when computing was at its peak. "

Crap! I'm losing about 15 potential people from my products! Oh dear!

Programming calculators? Woah. Like, how fast is a calculator? Oh, looked it up, around 4mhz. How on earth could you put a game on that?

...

How do you even program a calculator?

@Triston

No, how do you actually...Plug the calculator in? How does the calculator get hold of the code?
