QBasic is an interpreter that Microsoft distributed with later versions of MS-DOS, replacing the classic-style interpreter (GW-BASIC) that was included with earlier versions. It is based on QuickBASIC 4.5, with the [[compiler]] and parts of the language removed. |
QBasic is an interpreter that Microsoft distributed with later versions of MS-DOS, replacing the classic-style interpreter (GW-BASIC) that was included with earlier versions. It is based on QuickBASIC 4.5, with the [[compiler]] and parts of the language removed. ''Almost'' any program specifically written for QBasic will work under QuickBASIC 4.5 or later without changes. |
