Original Files For Downloading and Use
I have spent years making these programs but they may be yours free to
learn more about QuickBasic, Turbo Pascal, and low-level hardware programming.
Most of my files are for intermediate to advanced QBASIC programmers and trig
and calculus students who want to do their homework faster. Remember, your
computer is MUCH more powerful than a calculator so use it!
IMPORTANT: These programs are FREEWARE.
But please ask for my permission before selling my software or modifying it.
I assume no responsibility over ANY losses resulting from the use of these programs.

NOTES: QBASIC.EXE is on the Windows 95 and 98 CDs under \TOOLS\OLDMSDOS. If you are getting Subprogram not defined errors in QuickBASIC 4.5, you must load QuickBASIC using the command QB/L. Make sure you have the files QB.BI, QB.QLB, and QB.LIB in your QuickBASIC directory. If you are getting an "Advanced feature not available" error in QBasic, you need to buy QuickBASIC 4.5 or 7.1 (the compiler version) from a company like www.emsps.com, BASMARK QuickBASIC for UNIX, or convert the program to use a InterruptX emulator like INTX.BAS. Some Frequently Asked Questions are answered at qbasic.com. Good tutorials can be found at programmingtutorials.com, QBSource, and QB Tutorials by Jordan Day.
