BASIC/Visual Basic >> teh secrets of basic
Posted by wossname on 03:11:00 02-19-2002
the one thing I learned in qbasic:
if you GET a solid block of color of any size from the screen in mode 13, you can take the first element of the array and PUT that by itself seperate from the rest of the array.

I must be bored..

Qbasic is an inturpriter for the Basic language, whaat VB evolved from, Qbasic was a microsoft thing, there are many basic compilers out there, its dos based though.

It should be in the tools\oldmsdos on a Win98 CD. And no, QB is NOT VB. [addsig]

I think dxprog is right. [addsig]

That's right. QBASIC is not anything like VB. It's pretty much an improved version of the original basic. Many computers come with it, it fits on a floppy easily, so getting it shouldn't be too hard.
