BASTIPS3.ARC
In November 1985, I distributed to various BBS's a BASTIPS.ARC
file containing tips, trick, hints and techniques on using BASIC
followed in July 1986 by BASTIPS2.ARC. Users of BASTIPS.ARC and
BASTIPS2.ARC will recall that I compiled and editted a variety of
articles from various magazine and other sources which I had found
helpful in using BASIC.
This BASTIPS3.ARC file is a continuation of the first two
files. The tips and tricks in this file were taken from magazine
articles and other sources over the last 6 months of 1986. As
before, I take NO personal credit for authoring any of the items.
I did take certain liberties in editting the articles. Proper
attribution is given with each item.
The various files contained in BASTIPS3.ARC were prepared using
WordStar in nondocument (ASCII) mode. BASTIPS3.ARC is arranged in
the following categories.
BASANSI.TXT Controlling the ANSI driver from BASIC
BASCMATH.TXT Math functions in BASIC
BASDRAW.TXT Using BASIC's DRAW command
BASICAL.TXT The BASIC - Assembly Language connection
BASICNTS.TXT Miscellaneous BASIC tips and tricks
BASMENU.TXT Writing and using menus in BASIC
BASTIME.TXT Time functions in BASIC
FASTBASC.TXT Tips on speeding up BASIC execution
STRVARS.TXT Handling string variables in BASIC
Enjoy!
