TinyBasic

Interpreters for Tiny Basic written in GW-Basic, C, C#, Java, Pascal, Python, VB.Net and others. These are Pure interpreters, e.g., no byte code, no AST, not even pre-tokenized - although the lexical analyzer is separate from the parser.

For instance, gw.bas is an interpreter for Tiny Basic written in GW-Basic.

It supports:

  • bye/quit, clear, cls, end/stop, help, list, load, new, run, tron, troff
  • for = to ... next
  • gosub ... return
  • goto
  • if then
  • input [prompt,]
  • [let] =
  • print <expr|string>[,<expr|string>][;]
  • rem or '
  • Operators: + - * / < <= > >= <> =
  • Integer variables a..z, and single integer array: @(expr)
  • Functions: abs(expr), asc(ch), rnd(expr), sgn(expr)
  • ":" to allow multiple statements per line.
  • Line numbers are required for programs, but has an interactive mode too.

Has enough features that it can run a Tiny Basic version of Star Trek, and a Tiny Basic version of MineSweeper.

The GW-Basic version was tested in DoxBox running GWBASIC version 3.23, and with PC-Basic .

  • Star Trek is a version of the Star Trek game, that most interpreters can run.
  • MineSweeper is a version of the Mine Sweeper game, that most interpreters can run.

Tiny Basic

If you just enter a statement without a line number, it is run interactively:
