Don't know too many of the others, but the origin of the name of basic was something along the lines of:
Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code

honestly it was the closest to a programming language that had real english terms in it's syntax, but on the other hand that was based on things like QBasic a long time ago - over 20 years ago.

It just meant it was partly, and sort of designed to be a starting point in terms of learning to program, but, yes, VB.Net is a bit different, but suppose it still does things like For..Next, instead of for () { }, like C# for example.

Stay well

Subject: [Audyssey] Programming language comparison


  Hello all,
As I am still newbie in programming, I would like to ask those of you who know, to compare the languages that I will mension here. The only thing I want to compare is how easy the language is to learn and why. For now I can program in the inform 7, and have learned jaws scripting. I tried python but I canceled studying because I didn't understand a single thing. So let's compare the inform 7, python, jaws scripting, vb 6, and c++ from the aspect of how easy they are to be understood. This question may seam stupid to experts, but still I would like the opinions on this.
  Best regards!
