This is an addendum to the discussion about BASIC.
I went to the PowerBASIC site supplied be John and found a
comprehensive site for BASIC programming issues. Their top compiler is
for 32 bit pgmng. For details one should browse that site.
But for starters, they offer a sale on PowerBASIC, reduced to $99,
includes manuals in electronic format, or $29 more for hard books.
Then there is PBVision, an add-on, for a Windows look. It's reduced to
$20 from $99!
A bit of info on arrays I found there:
"PowerBASIC for DOS is 99% compatible with Microsoft BASIC, including
QBASIC, QuickBasic, Professional Development System (PDS), GW-BASIC, and
BASICA. Added to downward compatibility are many revolutionary features
such as Built-in Assembler, Arrays up to 16 megabytes . . ."
