Introduction

Thanks for stopping by to read my book. I am really thankful for it.

What is programming? Programming, according to Dictionary.com, is

"a set of coded instructions that enables a machine, especially a computer, to perform a desired sequence of operations."

In other words, programming allows you to make your computer do whatever you want it to do. Programming is used in everything related to the computer, but there are many distinct flavors of programming. This book teaches Game Programming.

Game programming is very different from the other types of programming. When you turn on your computer, you often see static programsprograms that sit there and wait for you to do something. Not with games. Games are running constantly, and they don't need the player to do anything to keep running.

While game programming can be difficult at times, this book strives to turn the difficult into second nature. We use a language of programming called BASIC, which, as you can probably guess, is pretty darn basic.
