BASIC - Programming language of yesterdays?8th July 2025
It's hard to define BASIC by syntax alone these days.There has been cross polination between Fortran, Algol, and later Pascal. Culturally it's always heavily Imperative and Procedural in practice using arbitrary keyword based program flow. |

BASIC is not dead, it evolves. Basic was created once with missions to make programming approachable for students and non nerdist. - Democratized programming—making it accessible to students and hobbyists. - Focused on readability and simplicity. -*snip* |

@Pixel_Outlaw: Blitz Basic is now open source so you can add that to your version that you can compile, or you can use FreeBasic, that is written in FreeBasic, and add that to that compiler.I think it might be in that one already though. ** Just for inf*snip* |

You can transpile BASIC syntax to javascript and you will have first class functions for free, and also Class, etc.This what I have tried before, but i have to stop if for some reason. I still want to try it someday. |

Welcome!I think there's still some room to go. (I really want first class functions with closures - language features going back to the 50s and 60s) But BASIC has come a long way from unstructured messes inherited from the style we see with Dartmout*snip* |

Welcome.You chose a fairly good basic forum. There are some others that you would not believe are still stuck in the 1970s and 1980s. Those are not moving the language forward, this one tries and does well, versus those others. |
