Basic-256 is a project to learn the basics of computer programming.[1] The project started in 2007 inspired by the article “Why Johnny can't code” by David Brin, which also inspired the creation of Microsoft Small Basic.[2] Its main focus is to provide a simple and comprehensive environment for middle/high school students to learn the basics of computer programming.[3]

Basic-256 started as a simple version of BASIC: the code editor, text output window and graphics display window are all visible in the same screen.[4] However, successive versions have added new features,[5] namely:

  • Files (Eof, Size) – Version 9.4d
  • Mouse events – Version 9.4d
  • Sprites handling – Version 0.9.6n
  • Database functions – Version 0.9.6y
  • Network – Version 0.9.6.31
  • Real Functions and Subroutines – Version 0.9.9.1
  • Maps (Dictionaries) – Version 2.0.0.1

Complete documentation is available in English, Russian, Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese.
