Welcome!

Post by guest »

Welcome to the new forum, which has been set up because Conforums (who hosted the old BB4W and BBCBASIC forums) are closing down. I am hoping that this can be a place where users of both BBC BASIC for Windows (for Windows 95 through to Windows 10) and BBC BASIC for SDL 2.0 (for Windows, Linux, Mac OS-X, Android, iOS and Raspberry Pi) can seek help and advice, or simply hang out. I hope very much that you will find it friendly and accessible, and I would particularly like to welcome members of the old BB4W forum; I have asked its administrator to share the day-to-day running of this forum with me.

Richard.

52 members in only two days is pretty impressive - and the members of the old BB4W forum haven't yet been formally told about this one so there may well be more to come. Welcome all!

hi and welcome to the forum!

I'm glad you are enjoying the demos - if you find something you don't understand, please ask, and we'll see if anyone can help!

I don't know what level you are at, but if you are new to BBC BASIC, you might find the tutorials useful, too:

It's wonderful to hear that you're exploring BBC Basic at the age of 74!
Learning new things, especially in the realm of programming, is a fantastic way to keep the mind engaged and active. The demos can be a great way to start, and with persistence and practice, you'll surely make great progress. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need assistance along your learning journey.

Keep up the fantastic work!
