Enthusiastic but not vert knowledgeable fan. here. So does that include David Williams to? It sounds so patronising.
I first used BBC Basic in 1982 at school.for o and alevel. Then wen ton to proffesion language for a job. I was a 'Wizkid'. BBC Basic Wondows/SDL relys alot on knowing about eith windows api calls or sdl to do the fancy stuff.
Obviously the only person who knows how in work indepth is Richard.
There are many knowledgeable people on stardot.
There is a project to develop a risc PC with BBC Basic not sure if these one will run on it

Re: BBC BAsic programming skills
There was a machine called the RiscPC that runs RISC OS and has BBC BASIC on it, it came out in 1994.Repton wrote: ↑Sat 02 Jan 2021, 17:14 There is a project to develop a risc PC with BBC Basic not sure if these one will run on it

RISC OS has always included BBC BASIC, but it is Acorn's flavour that is directly descended from the BBC Micro, not Richard Russell's flavour. The machine linked above, running RISC OS, will also be running Acorn's flavour.
You can also run RISC OS on the Raspberry Pi, if you already have one it's a free download, and is one of the few things that runs fast on the original 2012-issue Raspberry Pi 1.
