Once upon a time, knowing how to use a computer was virtually synonymous with knowing how to program one. And the thing that made it possible was a programming language called BASIC.

60 years ago, the inventors of the BASIC programming language actually achieved what they had hoped for: simple programming that is accessible to everyone.

BASIC, a programming language that first appeared on May 1, 1964, celebrates its 60th anniversary in 2024. With the grant, Kemeny and his team opened up their BASIC prototype to everyone at ...

The history of basic computer programming languages dates back far. Learn more about the BASIC & C coding languages that got everything started.

This is why I’ve long argued that BASIC is the most consequential language in the history of computing. It’s a language for noobs, sure, but back then most everyone was a noob.

The new language was presented by its creator, Russell O’Connor, Infrastructure Tech Developer at Blockstream, at the ACM SIGSAC Workshop on Programming Languages and Analysis for Security (PLAS 2017) ...
