BASIC on a Microbee in 1986 bought me to ã > ã > de VK2WAYã > ããWith me it was when our science classroom bought a Commodore PET in 1981. Weãlearned as a class to write programs in BASIC, then worked as teams to writeãprograms that demonstrated what we learned. In most cases one or twoãstudents did all the work, and the other team members goofed off. We'd all beã tested individually, so paying attention was important.ããTo me at the time, computers were magical. The idea that you could tell aãcomputer what to do by writing and keying in code was also magical. it wasãlike writing spells. We didn't get too technical in what all could be doneãin BASIC though. It was basically creating processes requiring inputãstatements that would be used in making math programs, or you would enter aãname, a noun, a verb, and some adjectives, and it will create a story whereãit fills in the blanks with the words you gave it. I wanted to learn moreãadvanced skills such as variables and arrays to make the story programs moreãrandom, however my guess was the teacher hadn't read that far in the bookãyet.ããI never went much further in programming even though I had an Atari 400 thenãlater a C-64. I would try to learn, but I probably could've learned moreãif I had learned flowcharting as it related to creating larger programs with ãmultiple loops and subroutines.ããNow that I have a couple of Raspberry Pi's and a Rock64 sbc, I would like toãlearn Python so I can make use of the GPIO pins.ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ The Cave BBS - Since 1992 - cavebbs.homeip.netã

I'm currently learning 6809 assembly on a TRS-80 (CoCo) emulator. It's pretty advanced features for an 8-bit cpu: two stacks, 16-bit registers, a multiply instruction, and best of all; a SEX instruction.ãã... Decimal points are always one place too far to the left.ã

That's one chip I really lovedãprogramming. Seemed very easy to work with, and one I think I could quicklyãget used to again.ãã un> ...

It's nice that all theãbooks (or the ones that matter I guess) are all available on PDF these days.ã-----------------------ãCDP ã - The Diamond Mine BBSã-----------------------ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Diamond Mine Online BBS - bbs.dmine.net:24 - Fredericksburg, VA USAã
