is there anyway to use BASIC to program for the gp? I use blitz basic right now is there anything similar? or will there be? i saw something about dragonBASIC for gba being ported a while back.
Hang on, falling bak to basic is BAD :wacko:Twimfy posted on Sep 3 2003 said:Not sure, but I hope so, I've been learning C and I'm really struggling.
Well.. Ruby is pretty nicetokikenshi posted on Sep 5 2003 said:But perhaps learning Python or Ruby would be more suitable, eh? :rolleyes:
I've started by learning C++ and now going backwards to C is giving me problems as flexibility is decreased.generalnmx posted on Sep 4 2003 said:BASIC is an interpretive language. Someone would have to port over an interpreter first.
I think there may be some utilities to convert BASIC programs into executable code, but I don't think they would be compatible with GP32 development.
And if you don't like C, you could always try C++. The main reason they teach C first in classes is because C is purely fuctional, while C++ has some object-oriented structure (hence the ++, mostly). I suppose they'd rather you learn the fudementals first, before you have a chance to goof-up OOP.
I've been interested in implementing the good 'ol BASIC version used in the Sharp MZ-700 microcomputers...
