 MBASIC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MBASIC is the M icrosoft BASIC implementation of the BASIC programming language for the CP/M operating system on the 8-bit Intel 8080 processor.
Unlike versions of Microsoft BASIC-80 that were customized by home computer manufacturers to use the particular hardware features of the computer, MBASIC relied only on the CP/M operating system calls for all input and output.
MBASIC was an important tool during the era of 8-bit CP/M computers.

 Marathi Basic Homepage
MBasic was started in an attempt to introduce programming to students of marathi medium at an early age.
MBasic 5.5 has a few changes from version 5.0.
It should now run on any wintel (win32 on intel) platform with ease.

 Computerworld - Programming › BASIC programming language
MBASIC was developed as an option to have a simple programming languageavailable to users who are beginners in computer science.
The binary "mbasic.exe" is the actual interpreter engine and it is necessary in order to run the developed programs, the engine is automatically called by the editor environment, such functionality makes very easy to develop and test applications inside the editor environment.
The binary "based.exe" is the editor environment and can be used to edit and run MBASIC programs.

 The Actrix Computer.
The Access is one of the few computers to include both MBasic (Microsoft) and CBasic (Digital Research).
The benchmark time of the system with MBasic is comparable to other Z80A based systems running at 4 MHz (see Table 1).
This is an advantage for users who are doing programming and not just using off-the-shelf software packages, as MBasic, an interpreter, can be used for program development and debugging, and CBasic, a compiler, can be used for long runs.

MBASIC from Microsoft is so widespread within the microcomputer world that we need only say that this interpreted BASIC works as expected and makes a huge software base available to the Kaypro owner.
Non-Linear Systems, aware that the typical user is not a computer professional or hobbyist, has wisely selected a package of user-friendly software.
On examining the machine we immediately noticed that the Kaypro II's hardware is solid and obviously designed for transport.

Instead, it used MBASIC as a self-contained programming environment.
Ironically, MBASIC was actually written on a Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) Programmed Data Processor 11 (PDP-11) minicomputer running UNIX V6 on the University of California at Berkeley (UCB) campus, which Gates and Allen timeshared.
The Altair 8800 used the Intel 8080 microprocessor, which couldn’t run UNIX.

 The Altair™ Peripherals™ (The True Story)
'MBASIC' stands for 'Microsoft Bring Altair Software Into Computing'.
When IBM decided to preempt the PC field with their Micro-Channel Architecture™ and a new operating system known as 'OS/2', Bill decided to play along, but what he really wanted was to see MBASIC™ make a comeback.
When David Cutler came crosstown to Redmond, Bill immediately besieged the renowned developer about re-implementing MBASIC™ at the core of 32-bit protected mode Windows.

Perhaps the best way to explain how MBASIC works with strings would be to use a short example program, and show what the string space looks like after each instruction.
Many of our users are unfamiliar with the way MBASIC stores and manipulates strings.
-------------------------------- MBASIC NOTES -------------------------------- A question asked quite frequently regarding MBASIC has to do with "garbage collection"; or "Why does my MBASIC program suddenly lock up in the middle of execution?".

 Re: Using Mini-Basic and MBasic languages
It'd be a neat project for someone to write a de-tokenizer/tokenizer function into mbasic, or perhaps make a seperate program that converts ascii files to tokenized format, and vise versa, but probably a bigger project than I have time for.....
>All in all, though, both Mini-Basic and MBasic give the user something >to work with: solid, reliable programs free for the user to both use >and modify (the assembly source code is included with either interpreter).
I program DOS assembly, don't really know enough windows functions and all to handle Windows assembly too well, One reason I'm growing fond of HLA, it let's me write windows console mode program like my DOS assembly language programs....

 Computer Source Magazine: Inside XP: Office & Activation Part 2
As far back as 1975, computer hobbyists were making copies of the MBASIC interpreter and swapping them freely at both private meetings and public conventions.
Stemming from their college work in computer science and freelance programming activity, MBASIC explored the feasibility of producing a language for the then new and exciting Altair 8800 microcomputer marketed by Micro Instrumentation & Telemetry Systems (MITS).
This early interpreter required 4Kbytes of RAM, which seems incredibly small today, but was a major piece of software at the time, when most programs were still being loaded from punched paper tape or entered manually in binary code via the front panel switches.

 OSBORNE O1
I ran the Benchmark programs on MBasic (interpreted) and they were faster than most machines we've tested.
Another problem I had, and this time I think it was the MBasic, was that I couldn't read programs which I'd previously saved using the 'A' suffix.
Nor is the software gratuitous rubbish - it comprises CP/M, MBasic, CBasic, Wordstar, Mailmerge and Supercalc, CP/M is just about the industry standard operating system which means that a wide range of existing and new software products will be quickly made available for the Osborne 1.

That is, one disk held MBASIC and the DESK MASTER programs; the other disk, to be ini- tiated using DDISK-DM.BAS (called from the DESK MASTER main menu), created an indexed data disk, which DESK MASTER instructed the user to swap into drive A: when accessing any of the applications.
This is no longer ne- cessary, since most of us have enough space on a disk to store both the programs and MBASIC and a substantial number of Appointments, short Memos, and a couple of Card-files.
So, I have made a couple of changes in the code so that the program no longer uses a disc label file to distinguish between a Program and a Data disc.

Reload MBASIC, call up the file in which you stored your program and check it carefully, editting as required.
I am indebted to Jim McHutchion of DEFOG for his note on recovering MBASIC files which identified the locations (0AC8h and 0AC6h) at which MBASIC stores the addresses for the start and end of program memory.
The address of the end of program is stored at 0AC6h and contents are a function of program length.

 Chapter 1: Overview
Thus, it is possible to transfer MBASIC programs to Omikron Basic but not the other way around.
If you still own programs written in MBASIC and you would like continue utilizing them on a modern computer, you can transfer these program to Omikron Basic just by making a few simple adjustments.
The example programs in the DEMO folder exhibit various aspects of programming with Omikron Basic and thus demonstrate that effective results can be achieved even with short programs.

 Detailed information about Osborne 1
Besides being the first portable computer, it was also the first computer that included software; the bundled WordStar, SuperCalc, dBase II, CBASIC and MBASIC had a retail value of more than $2,000.
It weighed 23.5 pounds (12 kg), cost US $1795 --just over half the cost of a computer from other manufacturers with comparable features-- and ran the popular CP/M 2.2 operating system.
Its hardware features included dual 5.25-inch floppy disk drives, a 4 MHz Zilog Z80 CPU, a fold down keyboard, and a five-inch, 52x24 character monitor.

You can actually use the same hardware you used for Mbasic for PCWH but you need to export the.hex, or.h file from PCWH into MbasicPro and then program into the Mbasic hardware from there.
There are indeed jobs available in the embedded systems/ubiquitous computing fields, that you can apply for after you leave parsons.
You need to know, however, that if the language you use to program Micros is Basic (Pbasic, Mbasic, Picbasic) you may encounter a wall.

Many of the materials for these simple project can be found in the Physical Computing Locker – ask me or Kunal to let you in.
Look in the Math section of the Mbasic Manual and, if you need to, add a line of code that alters the numbers from the sensor mathematically (via multiplication, subtraction, addition, etc…).
If you look up these commands in the Mbasic manual you will find circuit diagrams, examples of code, etc… The point of this exorcise is to have you experiment on your own with these materials.

 Linux Today - FairfaxIT: The power and the pleasure
For business, CBASIC was better as you didn't have the problem of round-off errors in dealing with dollars and cents (MBASIC was float and I believe rounded at six digits), but MBASIC still won out.
The piracy was possibly the leading reason his basic won out over its many competitors; it had a large installed base of users so more applications were written for it.
The implication (I don't recall if it was explicitly stated), was that MBASIC was a PORT from (unlicensed) source code.

Modified Microsoft BASIC Commodore 128 BASIC is a modified version of Microsoft BASIC, commonly referred to in the CP/M universe as MBASIC (see description of MBASIC in Chapter 5, CP/M Mode).
The new BASIC 7.0 is based on statements from the older C64 BASIC 2.0.
