Programming: Simple as pie

Apr 24, 2000 Write an essay on this topic.

Many programmers today will lead you on to believe that programming is too complex and hard for the regular person to understand. Honestly, this is no less than self worship. The truth of the matter is that programming is as simple as pie. For example, the best way to begin learning is to study a programming language called BASIC, or Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Information Code.

Here is a sample program:

what is your name? John
Hi John!

and this below is how it is done:

0 rem my program
10 input"Your name is";a$
20 print"hi ";a$;"!"
30 end

As simple as pie!
believe me, go farther into BASIC, and you will gain the confidence to learn the more advanced languages like C.
