QBasic

QBasic (QB) is a program (development environment) that includes a BASIC language interpreter. This programming language was created by Microsoft Corporation and runs under the DOS disk operating system. QBasic has tools and statements for writing code with shell debugging.

Usage

Now QBasic is not widely used, because the program was created back in the 80s. Information technologies are developing, so old programming languages become irrelevant. QB was integrated into the distribution with OS Windows. At the beginning of the 21st century Microsoft removed its support. Today QBasic is suitable only for students who learn programming language from scratch. For creating programs and serious compilations this development environment is not suitable.

Functionality

QuickBASIC is a specific and narrowly focused software. Only an advanced user will understand the interface and tools. To compile data and work in this development environment, you need to know math. Working in the program, you create conditions and control them. If necessary, you can specify operators and view ready information on loops and functions. QBasic does not support adding modules that are created in third-party programs or found on forums. Once you start the development environment, you write the "program code" yourself by entering variables in the necessary places. The limited functionality and lack of added modules is a disadvantage of this programming language. In QBasic you will not create a large project. Using the "command mode", you simplify the work with the program, but without additional modules this development environment is not suitable for complex tasks. On our site is QBasic, which runs on newer versions of Windows.

Key features

• the program is designed for users who have standard skills in the programming language;
• the development environment runs on newer versions of Windows OS;
• small program functionality and functions that "write" and customize code;
• a custom interpreter has been added to the programming language set;
• the development environment does not support downloading additional modules created in other software;
• you write all projects from scratch, entering operators and commands;
• the program does not support creation of projects on a large scale due to limited functionality and lack of plug-ins.
