	"TB Ref" True Basic guide, Richard K. Herz
		True Basic is an ANSI Standard Basic developed by John Kemeny and Thomas Kurtz, the authors of the original Basic language.
		True Basic is a trademark of True Basic, Inc. and can be obtained through that company.
		True Basic is a modern structured language and may be the most gentle environment for beginning programmers.

	Bringing Up BASIC
		So the BASIC in our family was a sophisticated language with a good collection of structured constructs, sophisticated graphics, all the good modularization tools, etc. What a far cry from what most of the rest of the world had to use.
		True BASIC also embraces the good things we have demanded from our own versions of BASIC over the years: good and accurate error messages, a user interface that is simple and plain, and the capability to be used for both small and large programs.
		True BASIC will be produced to fit into the major personal computers that have a reasonable amount of memory (128K or more), and it will be identical for all machines.

	Programming In BASIC: An Introduction to True BASIC
		In True BASIC you may also use procedures and functions, either of which may be internal (using global variables) or external (using local variables).
		One nice feature of True BASIC is that the coordinate system is the same as that used in algebra: the horizontal axis runs from left to right and the vertical axis from bottom to top.
		True BASIC also provides for windows whose size and location can be adjusted easily.

	Programming in True BASIC
		True BASIC programs can run on a number of different machines, so its windows are not standard GEM windows.
		True BASIC makes use of channels (pathways) to disk files, the printer, and windows.
		True BASIC's graphics statements can be grouped into several categories, the first of which includes the Plot statements.

	Introduction to True BASIC
		True BASIC is similar to F (a subset of Fortran 90) and has excellent graphics capabilities which are hardware independent.
		True BASIC does not distinguish between integer numerical variables and floating point numerical variables and recognizes only two types of data: numbers and strings (characters).
		True BASIC also allows arrays to be redimensioned in a way similar to the use of the allocate and deallocate statements in Fortran 90.

	Language Purification
		Basic is an old language—developed in 1964—and it still carries a lot of baggage from the past.
		True BASIC was destined to lose the battle, but in a larger sense it won the war.
		Because Visual Basic ran in the Microsoft Windows environment and had a completely new programming model, it didn’t need to be compatible with earlier Basics.

	Basic Research needs More funding
		The smile on their faces is what a true basic researcher feels like in side when one make a discovery, and generally that's reward enough.
		Basic research is designed to give us new discoveries; applied research uses these discoveries to gives us tangibles.
		Basic research and applied research both use the same measuring instruments and methods and work together as one, but they are treated very differently in their goals and funding.

	History of BASIC
		BASIC was born in 1964 at Dartmouth College in the USA to aid the teaching of computer programming at a time when the main methods of input/output were via punched card and/or paper tape.
		By the late 70's, BASIC had been ported to platforms such as the Apple, Commodore and Atari computers and now it was time for Bill Gates's DOS which came with a Basic interpreter.
		Basic was the first product sold by Microsoft corporation, and also the first major case of software piracy - It was copied widely even before Microsoft made it available (Bill Gates lost track of a copy on paper tape during a computer show).

	Decision Structures (Visual Basic 6)
		Visual Basic interprets this value as True or False; a zero numeric value is False, and any nonzero numeric value is considered True.
		Visual Basic provides the Select Case structure as an alternative to If...Then...Else for selectively executing one block of statements from among multiple blocks of statements.
		Visual Basic executes statements in the Case Else clause (which is optional) if none of the values in the expression lists matches the test expression.

	History of the BASIC family of languages
		IBM is having second thoughts about being associated with the BASIC langauge, so Microsoft has to put this product out under their own brand.
		They label the first version 2.0, since it is the successor to the IBM BASIC Compiler, and since they forgot that no one knows about that but them.
		Visual Basic developers invent a new way of developing applications that completely bypasses requirements gathering, based on the principle that “if you don’t care where you’re going, you don’t need a map”.

	VB Helper: Quick Question: False * True
		It also depends on the fact that Visual Basic considers 0 to be False and any other non-zero value to be True.
		It doesn't assume that False is 0 and True is non-zero.
		The original developers of Visual Basic felt people would be confused if they used short circuit evaluation and their side effects didn't occur so they made And evaluate all arguments.

	TRU from FOLDOC
		The advantage of true colour over a palette is that it does not restrict the range of colours which can be displayed on screen simultaneously.
		For example, if eight bits are used to store each component of each pixel then a total of 2^24 (about 17 million) different colours can be displayed at once which would require a (very expensive) palette with 3 * 2^24 bytes (about 50 megabytes) of memory.
		The disadvantage of true colour is that image transformations which would normally be done by changing the palette must be done to every pixel of the image which can be much slower.

	Introduction - DTSS - Dartmouth Time Sharing System
		This system ran on two computers, a GE-235 to execute programs (such as ones written in BASIC) and a GE DN-30 (Datanet-30) to handle communications (to and from teletypes) and to schedule the execution of programs on the 235.
		Tom Kurtz wrote an Assembler (in True BASIC) and Ron Martin did the same for the DN-30 (in Excel.) The assemblers then produced a replica of the original listing, the octal output of which could then be carefully proofread against the octal part of the original listing.
		There is a short manual for BASIC in pdf form.

		On May 1, 1964, two programs written in BASIC ran simultaneously on the Dartmouth time-shared system and both accomplishments would change computing forever.
		Ten years later, a version of BASIC written by Bill Gates and Paul Allen was included on the Altair, the first personal computer, and after three decades, BASIC is by far the most popular computer programming language.
		Another ancestor of BASIC was Dartmouth Oversimplified Programming Experiment (DOPE), which was too primitive to be useful, however both Darsimco and DOPE enabled Kemeny and Kurtz to experiment with computer languages that were targeted to the non-expert computer user.
