What is Basic?
1.
The first easy-to-use programming language made in the 1960s when Microcomputers made their debut. A very easy language to grasp. The language practically paths out commands for a computer to do. It is very capable of performing mathematics which are the main basis for Microprocessing.
start
Print "Hello world!"
goto
start
"Result - "Hello world" being typed on the screen in an infinite loop"
2.
One of the most well-known 3rd generation programming languages. It's easy to use!
10 Print "Enter the first number."
20 Input N1
30 Print "Enter the second number."
40 Input N2
50 Print N1; "+"; N2; "="; N1+N2
60 End

1. Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code: A line-oriented, limited programming language invented in the 1960s for the purpose of teaching university students to program computers.
Each line of BASIC code must be preceded by a number, which serves as a label for the GOTO statement.
The type of a BASIC variable is determined by a suffix. For example, A$ is a string, while A% is an integer.
2. Any programming language that borrows a few things from BASIC, even if it is also heavily influenced by other programming languages, such as Pascal. Includes QBASIC, FreeBASIC, PureBASIC, Visual Basic, and DarkBASIC, and other similar programming languages. These BASICs frequently add support for functions and user-defined types, and they also frequently don't allow user-defined types or arrays to be passed as arguments to functions.
Such languages are typically surrounded by communities that eschew the sort of structured programming that is mandatory in the majority of other programming languages. As such, parallel arrays are preferred over user-defined types, GOSUB statements are preferred over functions, single-line IF statements in conjunction with GOTO are popular even in BASICs that support block IF statements, and GOTO is often used when a loop statement would suffice and be more readable. Even when control structures are used, it is rare to see any sort of indentation of the code that goes within a construct. A notable exception to this tendency is the Visual Basic community.
A similar programming language is INTERCAL.
REM A typical BASIC program, in a typical sense-2 dialect of BASIC
10 INPUT "ENTER YOUR NAME: "; A$
GOSUB CheckName
IF NameOK% = 1 THEN
GOTO Good
PRINT "Are you sure you're not somebody else?"
GOTO 10
Good:
PRINT "THE SECRET WORD IS " + CHR$(33) ;
REM We don't need no stinkin' indentation!
FOR N = 1 TO 7
READ C%
PRINT CHR$(C%);
NEXT N
PRINT CHR$(33)
GOTO Terminus
CheckName:
IF A$ = "Osama bin Laden" THEN RETURN
NameOK% = 1
RETURN
Terminus:
DATA 77,65,76,65,82,73,65
END

Basic: A card drinking game that was made up of a group of guys near Langdon Iowa.
Rules
1. Ace is always the high card!!!!!
2. Rule number one is the only set rule!!!!
How to play.
1. Pass one card face down to every person playing.
2. No one should look at there cards tell the dealer has made a one time rule.
3. Dealer makes a rule. (any rule from any game) ex #1. the person with the lowest card drinks 2x the amount of the person with the highest card. ex #2. Person to the right of you drinks the amount on your card. Now the rules apply to everyone playing. NOT JUST THE DEALER.
4. After everyone has drank, Dealer: Pass the deck of card to the next person.
5. Repeat the 1-4.
Notes.
Rules like the thumb rule or the moose rule will apply through the whole game.
Person made rules only apply till till the dealer passes the cards.
Remember that the cards are not to be looked at till the dealer makes the rule.
ACE IS ALWAYS HIGH CARD!!!
Were all going to Langdon to play Basic.
