      5,0 von 5 Sternen An essay on (simple) programming languages design
      Bewertet in Italien am 25. November 2013
      Formatieren: TaschenbuchVerifizierter Kauf
      BASIC was the first programming language I ever programmed with, and I think this is true for most of the people of my generation: I started on a microcomputer (ZX Spectrum) experimenting the pleasures and frustrations of programming with just 48K RAM at my disposal...

      After BASIC came assembly, Forth, Pascal, C, etc. etc. But BASIC still remains the "adamitic" tongue of CS for me.

      This book is a passionate vindication of the "true" BASIC, the one designed and implemented by Kemeny and Kurtz at Dartmouth college in the mid 60s, and then evolved in a structured language whose definitive version is True Basic.

      The authors explain the main ideas behind language design they tried to implement along 20 years of evolution of their creature, and complain about the degenerations which BASIC was subjected to, due to its wide adoption by microcomputer vendors.

      In particular it comes to mind how seminal was Bill Gates implementation of a BASIC interpreter for the IBM computers, and the subsequent diffusion of BASIC as both language and "operative system" for small machines (we all remember the command line prompt, the LIST, RUN, SAVE etc. commands, and the like).

      Kemey and Kurtz strongly advocate their choices in the design of the variuos versions of the language, and try to explain the essential gap between their "True" BASIC and the remaining ones.

      The book will raise nostalgic memories in the reader of my generation but also show how certain simple but effective ideas in computer science were implemented in the original Dartmouth version and in the following ones.

      Not all the entusiasm for BASIC may be shared by the modern reader, but the passionate view of these pioneers still is worth to be considered by our modern perspective.

      I am certainly biased by "sentimental" remembrances of my childhood, but I cannot mark with less than 5 stars this little great book.
