Going over the Pi Pico BASICs
Relive your spaghetti code days on your Pi Pico!
There’s nothing quite like old-school computing. Thanks to maker and developer Gary Explains, you can relive the classic coding experience of the ’80s and ’90s with this Pi Pico BASIC interpreter. Called PiccoloBASIC, it enables you to program simple projects using BASIC.
According to Gary, the project offers a few simple functions, including commands such as let, if, print, for, goto and gosub. It can also interact with GPIO pins fundamentally – no pun intended. While limited, users can still perform familiar beginner projects such as blinking an LED and Hello World.
