MultiValue Basic: Sourcebook

The MultiValue Basic: Sourcebook accompanies those volumes in our This is... series of books which deal with the Basic, Data/Basic, FlashBasic, Info/Basic, Pick/Basic, and UniBasic programming language on MultiValue systems, and presents a series of case studies and illustrative examples for anyone who is learning to use the Basic programming language on MultiValue systems.

The material also enables the Trainee to develop approaches, ideas and strategies for producing Basic language solutions to business problems.

The MultiValue Sourcebook series of publications was designed with several types of reader in mind:

• The Instructor who is designing a training course in aspects of the MultiValue system and needs illustrative examples of the basic material

• Individuals who are extending their knowledge of some aspects of a MultiValue system

The current edition of MultiValue Basic: Sourcebook includes Chapters on:

• Designing a Basic program
• Abstract data types
• Adjacent key strings
• Carried forward / Brought forward
• Developing subroutines
• Interpolation
• Linear regression
• Monte Carlo methods
• Multivalue windows
• Numerical integration
• Picking up data from a TCL command
• Permutations & Combinations
• Recursive subroutines & functions
• Sampling
• Searching
• Simple statistics
• Solving polynomial equations
• Sorting
• Statistical correlation
• Subroutines for dictionary definitions
• Subroutines for user-exits
• The first Monday in..
• Timing Basic statements
• User-defined functions

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 material is based on that which I use on my own Training Courses, and is the result of many years' adding, extending and changing the material to suit the real needs of the Trainee.

Some of the material has appeared on my MB-Cyclopædia for Pick & MultiValue systems website
