Chapter 1 (BASIC )

  1. REM STATEMENT - Non-executable statement used to make remarks or notations about the program.

  2. PRINT STATEMENT - Used to display numbers, characters or words to an output screen.

  3. String- A collection of symbols (letters, numbers or special characters)

  4. END STATEMENT- Halt execution of a program.

  5. What does BASIC stand for?

Beginner’s


All-Purpose


Symbolic


Instruction


Code


  1. Where was it developed?

Dartmouth


  1. What two mathematicians created it?

John George Kemeny and Tom Kurtzas.


  1. In what year was it created?

May 1st, 1964


  1. What was it intended for?

computer language for generalists to use to unlock the

power of the computer in business and other academics.


  1. Who created a version of BASIC in 1975?

Paul Allen and Bill Gates.



  1. What was created in 1991?

VISUAL BASICS

  1. What was created in 2001?

BASIC .NET


  1. What does REM Statements help with?

explain what is going on in a program and allow someone to look at a

program to find out what the program or various parts of the program does.


  1. True/False: We can use math expressions in print statements

TRUE

  1. True/False: Quotation marks are needed for Strings

TRUE


  1. PRINT(3-3) 0

  2. PRINT(23*2) 46

  3. PRINT(64^4)16777216

  4. PRINT(“N”)N

  5. PRINT(“3+7”) 3+7

  6. PRINT(“Hello World”) Hello World

  7. PRINT(“Goodbye”) Goodbye

  8. PRINT(10-5*23^2) -2635

  9. PRINT(“Shutting Down”) Shutting Down

  10. PRINT(“265^2”) 265^2

COMMA VS SEMICOLONS

For example: “5+5=”,5+5 vs “5+5=”;5+5 → Whats the difference?
