How do I run a .bas file?

Question

I want to start coding in BASIC. However I do not know how to run a .bas file. If someone could help me it would be deeply appreciated.

Answer 1

Well Visual Basic has an IDE that allows you to compile , run, and debug the program within the IDE environment.

Otherwise you will have to find a basic compiler that will produce an *.EXE file after compiling the *.BAS

file. Perhaps there will be an intermediate object file *.oBJ which gets linked.

These tools and utilities are typically run from command line (MS DOS, UNIX)
