30 Hour BASIC - Electron Edition

What is BASIC?
Microcomputers are the tool of the 80's. BASIC is the language that all of them use. So the sooner you learn BASIC, the sooner you will understand the microcomputer revolution.

30 Hour Basic is a simple self-instructional course on the language of microcomputers. But programs need more than language: they need structure as well. So the course also teaches you good programming techniques. You'll learn how to keep, order and sort files, records and directories; how to print letters and addresses; how to invent your own computer games; how to handle numbers and so on.
