Sad to learn that Thomas Kurtz, co-inventor (with John Kemeny) of the BASIC programming language, recently passed away on November 12.
I got my start with computers by programming in BASIC. My early days of computing were on the Apple II computer, and I taught myself how to write programs in AppleSoft BASIC.
Later, my family replaced the Apple with an IBM PC, and I learned IBM BASICA and GW-BASIC -- and much later, QBASIC on MS-DOS 5.
