Appendix
The book This is Basic: a quick introduction for programmers is a quick introduction to the MultiValue dialects of Basic for the experienced programmer
The presentation is based on Malcolm Bull's experience of using the language on MultiValue systems for over 20 years, and addresses all dialects of the language as it is implemented on those systems
Each element of the language is introduced, described and illustrated in action, and for the experienced programmer there are discussions of the practical applications of the features of the language
This book is a companion volume to This is D³ and This is AQL on D³.
The book – like all the titles in our popular This is... series - is produced in a format which enables training organisations and software houses to include it as a part of their own education and training materials, and which allows us to keep the material up-to-date as the systems grow and extend the features and facilities which are available.
