Qbasic !!!
what will you be doing with that?
why dont you learn the more modern tools like java and C language.
Sorry, u said its for academic purpose.
I still find it hugely outdated and an utter waste of time. I wonder why schools dont teach things happening right now in the market.
Correct me if am wrong.

Yes you are wrong. BASIC is for beginners, and there is nothing wrong in learning how to write simple procedural programs with it. Afterall an infant learns how to walk before he starts running. |

i am an expert in qbasic. I even have a compiler that can compile your qbasic programs to standalone executable. But then, qbasic is only meant for classromm programming. It sure helped me alot to learn visual basic before i finally learnt oop like c++,
i think it is better to request for sample codes or how to solve specific problems or how to use keywords than to attempt to learn everything right here in this room.

diltony i agree with you, i also learnt qbasic before i learnt java. Just learn the basic keywords and what they do. know how to write simple codes that do what you want and then move on in your programmin life. QBasic CANNOT perform all the stunts you need in programming!

Web designing and programming is becoming the talk of the moment in information and computer technology. People are made to pay heavy amount of money in other to learn how to design and program web pages. You don’t need to be a computer scientist or a guru in computer for you to know how to handle that. I have a self explanatory tutorial that can guide you to learn how to become a web programmer using the most popular, and powerful web programming language called PHP. As you go through the site, you can search other free links go get more tutorial in other software with little or no fee. http://knowphp.webs.ioCheers! Share with others. One Nigeria Forever |

He (IBEXY) is righjt and you are wrong. No I don't even agree with u that BASIC is for beginners (it used to), but QBasic is dead and forgotten. QBASIC has little or nothing in common with VB or VB.NET. Because u learnt BASIC with QB does not mean that is the right thing to do or perhaps you learnt it a long time ago. Most of us old timers learnt QB. Now tell me what single resemblance has QB with VB (except in name). Absolutely nothing. Lines nos are gone. If you learn QB, you will have to learn all over again. You not only learn commands but the real concepts. Now these are some of the things you will have to learn all over again (there are so many, but these are the things that came off my head right now): 1 New IDE 2 Completely different concept 3 OOP 4 ActiveX 5 Inability to use DAO, RDO or ADO IF you go to NDA, will you be thought how to use bows and arrows and dane guns because those are what were used in those days. Look, 8 years in computer world is like a thousand years in the real world. Have you ever interacted with our so called lecturers? Very many will have problems doing or writing a most trivial program. Please ask those who know. Pple will laugh at you saying you want to learn QB at this age! Do not waste your time. I challenge anybody to tell me what knowledge gained in QBASIC that will be useful in VB. Don't even waste your time with VB. Go straight to .NET I can go on and on. QB encourages spagetti code. How about On Error. Man, forget it |
