A bit has two values, 1 or 0. Many languages (eg, Java) have a boolean type.

NaTeDoGG, could please explain how you find Java syntax far simpler than QB? Java is more "C-like" in that it uses curly braces for scope blocks, parenthesis for method calls, etc. Many other languages such as Javascript, PHP, etc use similar syntax so once you learn it, you can apply it across man...

I have fond memories of QB, but going back to it after 10 years is really brutal. Modern programming languages have evolved a lot, and QB just can't compete. FB overcomes much of that, but at some point it is time to give up QB syntax and move on to greater things. I find Java syntax far simpler, it...

Haha, thanks Raspberrypicker! :) If it is too fast, open dosbox\dosbox.conf and set "cycles=40000" to a lower number. The computer isn't too smart, he just closes the difference and attacks with simple combos. He doesn't even do all the moves. Read the programs\super\readme.txt file to learn the mov...

I recently dug out all my old QB45 games and used DOSBox to get them to run on Windows XP. Here is a zip containing the 8 programs I was so proud of so long ago... http://n4te.com/dev/games/natesGames.zip It has been about 12 years since I touched QBasic! Let me tell you, it is wierd. :) My old code...

Red Baron by Adam Stanchos was a very polished game. It showed me what good programming was. Adam personally gave me a few tips on programming and I feel that my interaction with him and his QBasic software contributed greatly to my love of programming. I was 12 years old at that time, and I am now ...

First execute this... LIB first.lib + second.lib,newlib.cat,newlib.lib The result is first.lib and second.lib are combined into newlib. Next execute this... LINK /q newlib.lib,newlib.qlb,nul,bqlb45; The result is newlib.lib is transformed into newlib.qlb, which can then be used to start QB45... qb.e...
