I started using BASIC with my BBC Microcomputer in the early 1980's.
My original programs were very straight-forward. They didn't contain anything very complicated.

I then went on to use an Amiga 500, using Amiga BASIC, bofore moving onto Windows OS.

I used my BASIC experiance writing Visual Basic scripts, (vbs), on Microsft Windows.
I also continued my BBC BASIC programming on emulators.

This site contains resources, scripts and programs that I have developed over the years. Some very straight-forward and others more complicated.
Each script will identify which version of BASIC is is written in.

I am now using my knowledge of BBC BASIC to develop for RISC OS.
