[MsKittyMasta]

anyone know what the point of an array is? they just seem harder and less usefull than the other loop

[jaywalker512]

@MsKittyMasta Arrays are probably the most useful things in programming. Makes operating on large amounts of data super easy. Both types of loops can be used to do the same things.

[PandaTaco5]

Do you know any BASIC programs for Mac OS X 10.6?

[jaywalker512]

@PandaTaco5 FreeBasic (current version) is crossplatform, and can run on Win/Mac/*nix.

What can you Create with this program?

[xROBOGAMERx]

how can you make the do loop = more then one integer or string. ive tried to figue it out but cant seem to get it. its always an error any help.

[hvacr24]

in a bit of a jam, can you help me set up a program for school. Create a BASIC program that captures customer information for Aardvark Pest Control. and recalls a file from an c drive or thumb drive and puts in it the code, writings.

This information is stored to a sequential access file. You will capture the following information and write it to a file.

Name

Address

City

State

Zip

Pest type

In your program open the file as append so it keeps the previous information in the file.
