Wanting use of the language to become widespread, its designers made the compiler available free of charge. In the s, software became a chargeable commodity; until then, it was provided without charge as a service with the very expensive computers, usually available only to lease.
They also made it available to high schools in the Hanover, New Hampshire area and put considerable effort into promoting the language. A version was a core part of the Pick operating system from onward, where a compiler renders it into bytecode, able to be interpreted by a virtual machine. Ahl and published in a newsletter he compiled. When management refused to support the concept, Ahl left DEC in to found the seminal computer magazine, Creative Computing.
The book remained popular, and was re-published on several occasions. The introduction of the first microcomputers in the mids was the start of explosive growth for BASIC. It had the advantage that it was fairly well known to the young designers and computer hobbyists who took an interest in microcomputers.
Despite Dijkstra's famous judgement in , 'It is practically impossible to teach good programming to students that have had a prior exposure to BASIC: as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration', [11] BASIC was one of the few languages that was both high-level enough to be usable by those without training and small enough to fit into the microcomputers of the day, making it the de facto standard programming language on early microcomputers.
How to design and implement a stripped-down version of an interpreter for the BASIC language was covered in articles by Allison in the first three quarterly issues of the People's Computer Company newsletter published in and implementations with source code published in Dr. The Apple II and TRS each had two versions of BASIC, a smaller introductory version introduced with the initial releases of the machines and a more advanced version developed as interest in the platforms increased.
As new companies entered the field, additional versions were added that subtly changed the BASIC family. Given BASIC's straightforward nature, it was a simple matter to type in the code from the magazine and execute the program. Different magazines were published featuring programs for specific computers, though some BASIC programs were considered universal and could be used in machines running any variant of BASIC sometimes with minor adaptations.
This book, and its sequels, provided hundreds of ready-to-go programs that could be easily converted to practically any BASIC-running platform. Turbo Pascal-publisher Borland published Turbo Basic 1. These later variations introduced many extensions, such as improved string manipulation and graphics support, access to the file system and additional data types. More important were the facilities for structured programming, including additional control structures and proper subroutines supporting local variables.
However, by the latter half of the s, users were increasingly using pre-made applications written by others rather than learning programming themselves; while professional programmers now had a wide range of more advanced languages available on small computers. It included constructs from that language such as block-structured control statements, parameterized subroutines, and optional static typing, as well as object-oriented constructs from other languages such as 'With' and 'For Each'. An important driver for the development of Visual Basic was as the new macro language for Microsoft Excel, a spreadsheet program.
To the surprise of many at Microsoft who still initially marketed it as a language for hobbyists, the language came into widespread use for small custom business applications shortly after the release of VB version 3.
While many advanced programmers still scoffed at its use, VB met the needs of small businesses efficiently as by that time, computers running Windows 3. Many small business owners found they could create their own small, yet useful applications in a few evenings to meet their own specialized needs.
Eventually, during the lengthy lifetime of VB3, knowledge of Visual Basic had become a marketable job skill. NET in The latter has essentially the same power as C and Java but with syntax that reflects the original Basic language. QuickBasic is part of a series of three languages issued by Microsoft for the home and office power user and small-scale professional development; QuickC and QuickPascal are the other two.
For Windows 95 and 98, which do not have QBasic installed by default, they can be copied from the installation disc, which will have a set of directories for old and optional software; other missing commands like Exe2Bin and others are in these same directories. The various Microsoft, Lotus, and Corel office suites and related products are programmable with Visual Basic in one form or another, including LotusScript, which is very similar to VBA 6.
The Host Explorer terminal emulator uses WWB as a macro language; or more recently the programme and the suite in which it is contained is programmable in an in-house Basic variant known as Hummingbird Basic.
Excel 4 and 5 use Visual Basic itself as a macro language. The ubiquity of BASIC interpreters on personal computers was such that textbooks once included simple 'Try It In BASIC' exercises that encouraged students to experiment with mathematical and computational concepts on classroom or home computers.
Popular computer magazines of the day typically included type-in programs. Futurist and sci-fi writer David Brin mourned the loss of ubiquitous BASIC in a Salon article [19] as have others who first used computers during this era.
