Learn TINYBASIC with Real Code Examples

Tiny BASIC interpreter runs on a microcontroller or small computer

Programs are stored in RAM or simple persistent storage

Input/output handled via console, serial, or simple hardware interfaces

Single-threaded, sequential execution model

No underlying OS or multitasking

Interpreter reads and executes line-numbered code

Variables stored in RAM

PRINT outputs to console or serial terminal

INPUT reads from user or hardware

Sequential execution, no multitasking

Single-threaded interpreter

Sequential execution model

Memory-constrained variable storage

Minimal I/O abstraction

Optional hardware GPIO integration for microcontrollers

Retrocomputers with Tiny BASIC interpreters

Arduino or AVR microcontroller experiments

Educational microcontroller kits

Simple interactive games or demos

Low-resource embedded logic controllers

Minimal memory footprint

Simplicity and readability

Integer arithmetic for performance

Line-numbered sequential execution

Portability across tiny hardware

Keep programs small and modular

Use subroutines via GOSUB/RETURN

Limit variable usage to available memory

Break complex logic into smaller line-numbered sections

Combine with hardware timers or GPIO as needed

Port small BASIC programs from other interpreters

Adjust to line-numbered sequential flow

Use integer arithmetic where floats unsupported

Adapt I/O for console or minimal hardware

Verify memory usage on constrained platforms
