Basic still is relevant, sort of. http://www.parallax.com/tabid/407/Default.aspx The Parallax Propeller is an 8-core microcontroller (with each core named a "cog") with very small amounts of memory on each core. The Propeller can fairly easily interface with PS/2 keyboards and mice, VGA monitors, and RCA Composite screens. You can code on it with ASM, a language with an onboard-interpreter called SPIN, some free but proprietary-and-slightly-limited C compilers, a tiny implementation of Basic that works, or a very robust Forth. Give it to the kids in your life, and they too will be able to write "Ian Rules!" :) |
