Abstract

AbstractThe relative merits of compiling and interpreting BASIC are examined, and these methods are compared with the technique called throw‐away compiling. The comparison reveals that a throw‐away compiler has much to recommend it, and some reasons for its superior performance are explained. The BASIC programs used for the performance tests are analysed, both statically and dynamically, and certain features are picked out for comment.
