KAZ Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 Does anyone have a really simple BASIC program I can try on this? The pinball program from a previous thread didn't work for me. The only thing that did work was: PRINT "HELLO" I tried this program, from Liquid Sky: 5 PRINT "Coin Flipper!" 10 PRINT : PRINT "How many flips?" : : INPUT N 20 IF N<1 THEN END 30 K=0 : PRINT And I completed the rest of it till the end...but then after I hit the last return, nothing happened?! After some lines I was given an error, and went back and corrected those-so that all lines were "valid". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 Did you try and type "RUN" ? The reason why PRINT "HELLO" worked was you typed it as a direct command. i.e. no line number By the way, you can probably review the program with the command "LIST" as well. But I'm not too familiar with Atari BASIC. Applesoft BASIC was my thing, but some commands are pretty much almost universal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 i still recommen turbo basic xl for atari... it has more structured stuff like labels, procedures, repeat, until, do, while, move command, proper IO routines, etc... faster... kaz: you find it in the timepilot.zip file http://www.s-direktnet.de/homepages/k_nadj.../timepilot.html (scroll down...) hve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
