BBC BASIC still exists? This is pretty cool!
- p_l 4y agoBBC BASIC was installed on computers at University of Aberdeen in 2008-2014, though curiously not in the Computing Science folder.
- Kim_Bruning 4y agoI grew up with a BBC B, and later an Archimedes. Last time I wrote a BBC BASIC program was as a test on a Raspberry Pi running RISC OS. What OS were the machines in Aberdeen running?
- p_l 4y agoWindows XP, with some later having Vista/7 installed. The BBC BASIC was provided in windows version. Some software used by engineering school was running through Xceed X11 server with actual software executing on few different unix machines (HP-UX, Sun, etc.)
