'''True BASIC''' is the commercial version of the original [[:Category:BASIC|BASIC]] by Kemeny and Kurtz. True BASIC formerly supported a few different platforms, but recent versions require [[Windows]].
 
True BASIC started out as an [[wp:BASIC#Standards|ANSI BASIC]]-complaint compiler, with enhancements soon added to extend the functionality. The code is somewhat similar to old [[Microsoft]] BASIC code (i.e. [[BASICA]] and [[:Category:GW-BASIC|GW-BASIC]]), but is dissimilar enough that it requires translation. The True BASIC website offers a free "BASIC-to-True BASIC" converter to ease the process (and also a [[:Category:Fortran|Fortran]]-to-True BASIC converter).
Rosetta Code seems to have no True BASIC programs.
 
Rosetta Code seems to have no True BASIC-specific programssolutions.
