F, QBASIC was the first logical programming language I learned in high school back in 2004. It was extremely outdated back then but BASIC (in it’s various forms) is hard to beat when it comes to learning the fundamentals.

QBasic was my first language when I started learning around the turn of the century. I remember it being super accessible even with the limited learning resources of the time.

RIP legend. O7

May his prompt always read “READY” wherever his legacy may GOTO or RETSUB.

My all-time favourite programming language was a dialect of BASIC. HiSoft BASIC on the Atari ST.

RIP.
