Synopsis

Shorter, faster, smarter: In FOR BASIC TO ONE-LINERS, minimalism meets programming. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the world of one-line BASIC programming on 8-bit computers. One-line programming is a technique where complex tasks, graphics and sound effects and even entire games are realized in just a single line of code. This minimalist approach requires precision and creativity to create efficient, yet powerful programs – with as few characters as possible and as short computing time as possible. This is exactly where FOR BASIC TO ONE LINERS comes in. With over 170 tips & tricks for shorter code and faster programs, this compendium is an indispensable guide for programming enthusiasts and retro computing enthusiasts. The book offers numerous practical examples with explanatory graphics and speed comparisons to help you understand complex one-liners. In addition, there is a comprehensive overview of BASIC commands (PEEKs, POKEs, SYSs, WAITs & CHR$s) as well as a practical list of all screen codes and PETSCII codes of the Commodore 64. Not only beginners, but also professionals will find many tips and tricks in this amazing compilation to give their programs the finishing touch.
