Hey when I type in the following I get an error "? peek (43234)" this is a different way of using the peek command that I am using. Is that the way I am suppose to type it in? Hey now the CO24947A is on the chip with -29 which I am guessing that the code. Which would say this is a C version. So what are the differences between the A version and the C version programing???? I still cannot get that peek command to work. Can you please show me what to exactly type in on the screen so it will work. So we can make sure this is the C version. I know this version is very rare. I really need to know what am I gaining by using the C version over the A version. I love to program so that means a lot to me. Thanks sean39 Hey everyone I feel so stupid I figure out what you wanted and typed ? peek(43234) and guess what I did get the answer 234 which means it a true version C cartridge. Now can anyone tell me what I gain from this..... Email me please with the answers at seanradios@yahoo.com I am so glad I found the version C so I don't have to use the A version anymore. Basically you don't get any more commands (IIRC). What you get is less bugs. I know that C fixed the infamous "growing program" bug that was in B. Again IIRC, this bug added extra bytes to the length of your program everytime you saved it in tokenized format. Thank you for that information it is really a big help,but I am still dissapointed Atari never tried tp expand on their basic language with more command words, and more choices in their graphic screens, and sound.

Thanks for the information about the bugs,and now at least I have a version that has no bugs in it.Even though I was hoping for a stronger basic language with more command wrods and maybe high screen resolutions and more colors. I love to program and the more we have to work woth in the language the better, but having no bugs is good too.

Hi everyone I am a old computer programer but I have now Amnesia for real. I had an accident in the military to my head,and recently was in a very bad car wreck with another head injury. I may sound stupid for asking these questions since I am suppose to be a computer programer. I programed programs back in the late 1970-1990's. I work also for NASA at the Advance Technologies reachsearch facility. Well here my stupid question I have the old Basic Computing Language Cartridge with two rom chips from dated on them is 1979. Now I have heard Atari came up with three Versions of this program. Version A,B,C. Now I have a Cartridge with the silver label on it that says ATAR BASIC COMPUTING LANGUAGE-3. Now this Cartridge has on one Chip in it. Now this may help some too on the chip it has: NCR2364-30 F811420 A8409 C024947a-29 ATARI 1984 NOW WHAT VERSION OF BASIC PROGRAMING LANGUAGE IS THIS ONE THE A,B,OR C. NEXT QUESTION WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES IN THEM?????????? DOES ONE HAVE BETTER COMMAND WORDS,MORE USE OF GRAPHICS. WELL YOU GET WHAT I AM GETTING AT WHAT DOES THE NEWER VERSIONS HAVE THAT THE OLD ONE DOES NOT??? EMAIL ME: seanradios@yahoo.com Thanks Sean39

Hi everyone My name is Sean, I am new to this form,and it been a rough year since the lost of my wife and family in a bad car wreck. My daughter is the only person I have in my life now. Well I need some help. I am borrowing this computer to get on this form. My computer is an Atari 400 and I have bought a lot of educational software for my daughter, and she loves it. My computer only has the 16K Module. I need a 48K memory Module or a 32K memory module to run more software for my daughter. Well please if anyone that has one of these memory modules that can raise the memory in my Atari 400 please email me at seanradios@yahoo.com I will pay you what ever you want for the memory module that works in the Atari 400 computer. Thank you and GOD BLESS
