Description

Calling all early-personal-computing fans, remember typing Basic programs into your home computer? HotPaw Basic recreates the retro-experience of a text-mode Basic interpreter, and it runs right on your iPhone or iPad.

You can also use HotPaw Basic as a programmable calculator, or for displaying simple line graphics.

The HotPaw Basic interpreter supports the minimal Basic language, including:
Commands:
let if then else endif dim data read restore
for to step next while wend goto gosub return
? print input open close end stop mat
run new list del save load dir cls rem
Functions:
int() abs() sgn() rnd()
sqr() exp() log() log10() sin() cos() tan() atn()
len() val() asc() str$() chr$() hex$() mid$()
timer() date$ time$ pi
Operators:
+ - * / mod ^ = and or xor not

Also includes new command and functions to support line graphics, Morse Code audio, FFT analysis, GPS location, MQTT and BTLE communications.

Line numbers are required. Type in the text of your program and type "run" to run them.

See: http://www.hotpaw.com/rhn/basic/iphone/ for a more complete description of the Basic language syntax, commands and functions which this Basic interpreter supports.

Works Great

HotPaw basic is a program that works wonderfully like the GW Basic as in good old days. I have tested it on gear engineering calculations I used before and it works perfectly and delivers accurate results. The only thing that drives me nuts is the screen is so small entering a large program is like doing fine embroidery testing my patience.
I wish you would produce also a MS QuickBasic similar program to extend this helluva Good Work. Thank You.
I can't wait to see the HPQuickBasic.

Needs work

Not very easy to use and no where near the features of Basic!, v3.2.2 which is less than half the price. Both need printable docs
