About this book

"Highly recommended to anyone of any age." - *Computing Today* "Without question the best general introduction to computing I have everseen." - *Personal Computer World* "Perhaps the best introduction around... outstanding..." - *Educational Computing* "These books are outstanding... they make all other young people's computer books look meretricious." - *Times Educational Supplement* The games in this book are very simple. They are intended to help you get used to your computer and to the BASIC language by typing in listings, debugging them and seeing how they work. The programs do not contain graphics or sound as these vary so much from computer to computer, but you can try adding these.
