So much this. The help in QBasic is how I learned to program at ten years old in a pre-internet world.
A couple years later my friend was trying to push me to learn C and I was sorely disappointed that there was no help, at all.
- thatha7777 3y agoI'm actively working on some kind of "live docs" feature for BabaBASIC. Though ... I have to wonder (and I'm only half-joking) -- should it just be a ChatGPT integration that can answer questions?
- speps 3y agoNo, plain old docs

- stuaxo 3y agoDefinitely not ChatGPT, even if you put in a thing that any code it ran would be tested somehow for correctness.
