Re: Modularity with plain SuperBasic

Some of you may have detected that I still use 2 GOTO statements in CFORMS, but it is because I simply cut CFORMS out of a previous "spaghetti" BOOT. Thus, I had to manually correct the GOTO destination lines. In these two occurences, the aim was to repeat a statement that was not yielding...

Re: Modularity with plain SuperBasic

Indeed, it needs also the five following files, that it will merge with the BOOT program : CFORMS_txt DATA 18,4,0,2,0,2,2,0,7,7,12 DATA 12,2,"3K"," -=3072",5,18,2 DATA 12,2,"5K"," -=5120",5,18,3 DATA 12,2,"7K"," -=7168",5,18,4 DATA 12,2,&qu...

Modularity with plain SuperBasic

To complement this post https://qlforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=4287&start=16 , I decided to open this new thread to discuss some updates of my methods to program plain SuperBasic without line numbers. Basing the new developments on the same example of my modular generic BOOT with only these two s...

Re: Coding SuperBasic

Hi all ! Jedi is back ! By the way, have all the best new year ! This will not be about FORTH, but SuperBasic, Turbo and SSB etc. When I want computation speed and low level capabilities, I don't compile SuperBasic nor assembler, I use C. When I want interactivity (and speed) I use FORTH (on the QL,...

Re: Hello From FRANCE

Salut, moi aussi français, et habite en France (région parisienne). Votre QL a l'air tout nu tout neuf ? Si vous voulez en faire quelque chose d'intéressant (à part SuperBasic) avec seulement 128K, une seule solution : FORTH ! By the way, it's the first time that I see a QL keyboard with an AZERTY l...

Re: Perspective 3D Graphics

Hi !
I showed here
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3238&p=33721&hilit= ... ive#p33721
a perspective transform method NOT using trigonometry, because I needed to do it with (16bits) integer arithmetic
(coded in FORTH indeed, on a BBQL)
