The BBC Computer is a powerful and versatile machine that has been developed as part of the BBC computer literacy project. It has numerous hardware options and a range of high quality graphic modes. These features, together with an extended, structured BASIC, make it an attractive machine for home, business or school use.
The programs in this book illustrate many of the features of the BBC Computer and its close relative, the Acorn Atom. They include games, language manipulation, mathematics, and ophiosticated graphics. Anexample of the latter was used for the cover design of this book. Users of this book ar encouraged to understand how the programs work, so each program is explained in great detail.
The programs are listed in both BBC computer and Acorn Atom formats; users of other computers will be able to adapt most of them quite easily.
