The originalversionof BASIC (which stands forBeginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) was first developed as a teaching language at Dartmouth College in1964. In 1978 a'standard BASIC' was adopted as aresultof recommendations on the minimum requirements of the language. BASICA, written by Microsoft for use with the IBM PCs, and GWBASIC (its equivalent form running on compatibles), was an enhanced version of standard BASIC,embodying nearly 200 commands. These were bundled with pre -DOS 5 versions of the operating system, but users of MS-DOS 5 and higher had access to a cut -down version of Microsoft's QuickBASIC, known as QBASIC. QuickBASIC was Microsoft'sfirst compiled version of BASIC, the earlier ones being interpreted languages. With an interpreted language each and every statement of code has to be interpreted by a separate program called the interpreter before the program is actually run. This happens each time a statement is encountered, even ifit appears within a loop. With a compiled language, on the other hand, a separate program, called the compiler, is used to check the whole program for errors and then compiles itinto the machine specific code that will actually be executed by the computer at run time. Statements within loops are only checked once, which makes a compiled program far more effic ent than an interpreted one. Visual BASIC is now very different from these early versions. Itis an event driven, or Object Oriented, compiled language that uses all of Windows' visual features.It also includes most of the features builtinto QuickBASIC, so earlier programs can be easily adapted to run on Visual Basic. Aswell as being a stand-aloneWindows 'programming environment', a slightly modified version of Visual Basic is alsoincludedwith MicrosoftOffice applications as VBA, or Visual Basic for Applications. vi Using Visual Basic About this Book Using Visual Basic isloosely based on our earlier book, Programming in VisJal BASIC for Windows, and is a guide to programming in a 1,Nindows environment using Microsoft's Visual Basic. For this book we used Version 6.0 of Visual Basic, on a PC running under Windows Me. The reader is not expected to have any familiarity with the language as both the environment and statements are intrcduced and explained with the help of simple programs. The user is encouraged to builc these, save them, and keep imp-oving them as more complex language statements and commands are encountered. The verysizeof VisualBasic anditsprogranming environment, can be very daunting to a new user, so this systematic approach should make leaning very much Easier. The first three Chapters give an overview of Visual Basic and the graphic based environment it uses. Forms and the more simple controls that go with them are introduced, but no attempt is made to explain how to use Microsoft Windows itself.Itis assumed that if you want to create programs that work with Windows, you will be fam liar with tle interface itself.If you do need to know more about the Windows environment, then we suggest you select an apprcpriate book from the 'Books Available' list - these are all published by BERNARD BABANI (publishing) Ltd. Chapters 4-7 cover the programming language and low it is entered into your PC, dealing with the basic Visual Basic vii Using Visual Basic statements which control program flow, input and output, and leading to the concepts of strings and arrays. In Chapter 8 we return to some of the more powerful intrinsic Visual Basic controls that allow you to produce the sort of Windows programs that you can buy. The next chapter covers functions and procedures which expand the programming capabilities of the user beyond the beginner's level.Chapter 10 dealsentirelywithdiscfilehandling techniques and should be of special interest to those who need to process large quantities of data. The two main types of data files are discussed in some detail, namely sequential and random access types. How to easily use the Windows file handling procedures is also covered. A chapter then introduces how Visual Basic can interact with Microsoft's Office applications, Word, Excel, and the database Access. The lastchapter gives an overviewofthepowerful debugging features of the program, and describes how to create, compile and package your application programs with the Visual Basic wizards. A glossary of mainly Visual Basic terms is included, which should be used with the text where necessary. For reference purposes, appendices also detail the Visual Basic naming conventions, user -defined formats, event procedures and main keyword listings and descriptions. Like the rest of our computer series, this book was written with the busy person in mind. It is not necessary to learn all thereisto know about a subject, when reading a few selectedpages canusually dothe same thingquite adequately. Using this book, it is hoped that you will be able to come to terms with Visual Basic and start producing programs of your own in the shortest possible time. Good luck and enjoy yourself, because it can be fun. If you would like to purchase a Companion Disc for any of our books listed on page ii,apart from those marked with an asterisk, containing the file/program listings which appear in them, then fill in the form at the back of the book and send it to Phil Oliver at the address given. VIII Using Visual Basic About the Authors Phil Oliver graduated in Mining Engineering at Camborne School of Minesin 1967 and since then has specialised in most aspects of surface mining technclogy, with a part cular emphasis on compute- related techniques. He has worked in Guyana, Canada, several Middle Eastern and Central Asian countries, South Africa and the United Kingdom, on such diverseprojectsas:theplanning and management of bauxite, iron,goldandcoalmines;rockexcavation contracting in the UK; international mining equipment sales and international mine consulting.In 1988 he took up a lecturing position at Camborne School of Mines (part of Exeter University) it Surface Mining and Management. He retired from full-time lecturing in 1998 to spend more time writing, consulting, anc developing Wet sites. Noel Kantaris graduated in Electrical Engineering at Bristol University and after spending three years in the Electronics Industry in London, took up a Tutorsnip in Physics at the University of Queensland. Research interests in Ionospheric Physics, led to the degrees of M.E. in Electronics and Ph.D. in Physics. On return :o the UK, he took up a Post -Doctoral Research Fellowship in Radio Physics at the University of Leicester,andthen in 1973a lecturingposition in Engineering at the Camborne School of Mines, Cornwall, (part of Exeter University), where between 1978 and 1997 he was also the CSM Computing Manager.

  • 2D-Spieleprogrammierung in Freebasic
    Dieser Abschnitt behandelt QuickBASIC und dessen abgespeckte Version QBASIC gleichermaßen; der Einfachheit halber wird nur von QuickBASIC gesprochen. Wer noch nie mit QuickBASIC in Berührung gekommen ist, kann den Abschnitt getrost überspringen – er ist eher für Programmierer interessant, die von QuickBASIC zu FreeBASIC wechseln wollen. Trotz hoher Kompatibilität zu QuickBASIC gibt es eine Reihe von Unterschieden zwischen beiden BASIC-Dialekten. Einige davon beruhen auf der einfachen Tatsache, dass QuickBASIC für MS-DOS entwickelt wurde und einige Elemente wie beispielsweise direkte Hardware-Zugriffe unter echten Multitaskingsystemen wie höhere Windows- Systeme oder Linux nicht oder nur eingeschränkt laufen. Des Weiteren legt FreeBASIC größeren Wert auf eine ordnungsgemäße Variablendeklaration, womit Programmierfehler leichter vermieden werden können. Hinweis: Mit der Compiler-Option -lang qb kann eine größere Kompatibilität zu QuickBASIC erzeugt werden. Verwenden Sie diese Option, um alte Programme zum Laufen zu bringen. Mehr dazu erfahren Sie im Kapitel ??, S. ??. • Nicht explizit deklarierte Variablen (DEF###) In FreeBASIC müssen alle Variablen und Arrays explizit (z. B. durch DIM) deklariert werden. Die Verwendung von DEFINT usw. ist nicht mehr zulässig. • OPTION BASE Die Einstellung der unteren Array-Grenze mittels OPTION BASE ist nicht mehr zulässig. Sofern die untere Grenze eines Arrays nicht explizit angegeben wird, verwendet FreeBASIC den Wert 0. • Datentyp INTEGER QuickBASIC verwendet 16 Bit für die Speicherung eines Integers. In FreeBASIC sind es, je nach Compilerversion, 32 bzw. 64 Bit. Verwenden Sie den Datentyp SHORT, wenn Sie eine 16-bit-Variable verwenden wollen. • Funktionsaufruf Alle Funktionen und Prozeduren, die aufgerufen werden, bevor sie definiert wurden, müssen mit DECLARE deklariert werden. Der Befehl CALL wird in FreeBASIC nicht mehr unterstützt.

Über das Buch Dieses Buch ist für Programmieranfänger gedacht, die sich mit der Sprache FreeBASIC beschäftigen wollen. Es setzt keine Vorkenntnisse über die Computerprogrammierung voraus. Sie sollten jedoch wissen, wie man einen Computer bedient, Programme installiert und startet, Dateien speichert usw. Wenn Sie bereits mit Q(uick)BASIC gearbeitet haben, finden Sie in Kapitel 1.3 eine Zusammenstellung der Unterschiede zwischen beiden Sprachen. Sie erfahren dort auch, wie Sie Q(uick)BASIC-Programme für FreeBASIC lauffähig machen können. Wenn Sie noch über keine Programmiererfahrung verfügen, empfiehlt es sich, die Kapitel des Buches in der vorgegebenen Reihenfolge durchzuarbeiten. Wenn Ihnen einige Konzepte bereits bekannt sind, können Sie auch direkt zu den Kapiteln springen, die Sie interessieren. 2. In diesem Buch verwendete Konventionen In diesem Buch tauchen verschiedene Elemente wie Variablen, Schlüsselwörter und besondere Textabschnitte auf. Damit Sie sich beim Lesen schnell zurechtfinden, werden diese Elemente kurz vorgestellt. Befehle und Variablen, die im laufenden Text auftauchen, werden in nichtproportionaler Schrift dargestellt. Schlüsselwörter wie PRINT werden in Fettdruck geschrieben, während für andere Elemente wie variablenname die normale Schriftstärke eingesetzt wird. Quelltexte werden vollständig in nichtproportionaler Schrift gesetzt und mit einem Begrenzungsrahmen dargestellt. Auch hier werden Schlüsselwörter fett gedruckt. Der Dateiname des Programms wird oberhalb des Quelltextes angezeigt. Quelltext 1.1: Hallo Welt ’ Kommentar: Ein gewoehnliches Hallo-Welt-Programm CLS PRINT "Hallo FreeBASIC-Welt!" SLEEP 5 END ii Einleitung Es empfiehlt sich, die Programme abzutippen und zu testen. Die meisten Programme sind sehr kurz und können schnell abgetippt werden – auf der anderen Seite werden Sie Codebeispiele, die Sie selbst getippt haben, leichter behalten.

  • Run BASIC – a Breakthrough Web Application Server “Web Programming for People Who Really Like to Program!” Carl Gundel, [email protected]
    Run BASIC – A Breakthrough Web Application Server “Web programming for people who really like to program!” http://www.runbasic.com Carl Gundel, [email protected] Run BASIC allows you to apply your desktop programming skills to create web applications without struggling with the overhead of typical web programming frameworks. Unlike other web programming technologies, with Run BASIC there is no state to manage, you don't need to GET or POST anything, and you never even have to think about the Common Gateway Interface. You can easily deliver interesting and rich applications that are difficult to deliver with other tools. Run BASIC hides the web technology so you can just code. Honoring a Tradition of Simplicity Run BASIC is a version of the BASIC programming language. BASIC was designed from the start to be easy for the non-computer scientist to use. A small language with simple syntax and English-like commands, BASIC is easily learned. Modern implementations of BASIC also add important features such as support for structured programming and scoped subroutines. Inspired by the approachability of BASIC we decided to create a web programming system with those important qualities. When BASIC was at the peak of its popularity in the 1980's most people who used it were users of home computers. These were usually 8-bit microcomputers that plugged into a television set. With the flick of a power switch the user would almost instantly see something like this: SuperDuper BASIC v2.3 15485 Bytes Free Ready So the user was able to immediately begin typing commands and programming the machine.
