BASIC = C++ ? What are its similitudes and what are its differences?

[PSPMAN90]

Well I read some about BASIC and what I find out is like the pure or the most easiest code to start with. Is that true?

Also I want to know:
If Basic and C++ are similar, in what way?
Differences, in what way?
Knowing BASIC will help me Know Faster and better C++?

I know I read F.A.Q. Section, but I didn't get all satisfied with it.

Thanks

No. All procedural languages are about equally easy to start with.

BASIC and C++ are similar only in that they contain basic control constructs.

It would be disadvantageous to learn <language X> in order to learn C++. Just start with C++ --it is a very good, easy to comprehend, well-structured, and standardized language. There is a lot of good literature for learning it. This site, for example, has a very good tutorial to get you started. (Find a link to it on the homepage in the top-right corner.)

The Lounge forum also has occasional posts with ideas for programs to write.

And don't be afraid to ask questions. We're here to help. :-)

Hope this helps.
