The
method by which this book attempts to explain PICK/BASIC is through step-by-step
tutorials. In the first chapter, the basics of logging onto the system and
creating your account are provided, along with a very cursory overview of the
Pick Editor. From there, basic programming principles and terminology are
discussed in Chapter 2. Chapter 3 takes the reader into the exciting world of
programming in PICK/BASIC by providing a ready-made program which will be
entered into the system, compiled, then run. A detailed explanation of each
instruction and principle follows immediately after the source listing.
This note covers introduction,
Structures of programming languages, Data types and type checking, Program
processing and preprocessing and program development.
