CliffsNotes Writing Your First Computer Program

by Allen L. Wyatt

Writing a computer program may be a task that looms large. Which language should you learn? Which version? Platform? Operating system? This guide takes each of your questions and breaks the answers down into manageable topics. Pick up this book, and you pick up the necessary knowledge of environments, debugging, BASIC and Qbasic; writing, running, and editing your first program; and using data and built-in functions. You'll learn what's involved in developing procedures and in specific programming structures, too. And CliffsNotes® provides a Q&A, a visual test, and various scenarios to reinforce what you've read.

I am a vintage computer programming enthusiast and this book was a nice introduction to QBASIC.
