Introduction: Visual BASIC 6.0
- Share to:
ASIC has come a long way from the teletype interface1 most current computer users might see in a museum. The language has evolved into an object oriented programming language used in sophisticated applications for PCs. Fortunately, BASIC can still be used to help the nonprogrammer understand what capabilities a programming language has and how all these features are used to solve real problems. This text is intended to help the student who expects their computer usage to consist primarily of using word processors, spreadsheets, presentation packages, and other software for specialized applications to understand what the commands these applications provide with single words and single mouse clicks are actually doing as encapsulated programs.
The text is organized to introduce problem solving with BASIC in a variety of contexts. Chapter 1 gives the needed instructions about how to execute a BASIC program with a minimal discussion of technical systems level ideas. The book uses a template that can be stored as a word processing file and pasted on the code form to provide all the support needed to write and print out both programs and program results. Output of computing results is controlled by a simple double click anyplace on the output form. Using the convenience of storing BASIC programs as word processing files avoids the complications of saving projects and forms that would never be very meaningful to this audience. Using simple highlight- copy-paste procedures is all that is needed to start programming. The same process starting with the code form provides an easy way to save programs for future use. All the procedures used to execute a program are shown with screen captures that guide the user through the systems set up for programming.
