  17. I really don't agree with this. Initially, learning ML is more difficult, but
  18. once you get the hang of it, you'll do fine, without BASIC or knowledge of
  19. BASIC. Still, if you want to use BASIC routines, a good memory map will help
  20. you better than just knowing the language itself.
