'''BBC BASIC''' is a version of the BASIC programming language. It is notable for being one of the few modern dialects that makes no attempt to be compatible to any great degree with Microsoft BASICs.
BBC BASIC was originally written for the BBC Microcomputer as part of the '''BBC Computer Literacy Project''' under the direction of the British Broadcasting Corporation (thus the name), but now runs on most modern, popular operating systems (and several older and/or less-popular ones).
Wikipedia has an article about BBC BASIC, but the best source of information is probably [http://www.bbcbasic.co.uk/bbcbasic.html the BBC BASIC homepage].
