The Maria Basic Interpreter is a command-line programming tool - interpreter aimed to help PDA users code formula/calculations, String and file procedures that execute on their handhelds.
The included source code may easily (re) compile for various OS/CPU architectures , since it was written in ISO/ANSI C and requres moderate machine resources .
Interpreter design allows fast execution of basic syntax like procedures with calculations and file/string operations. Its simplified syntax allows basic programming skills and may be used for learning , but may expand to execution of rather complex routines .
This interpreter allows basic like (simplified) syntax commands like nesting, statement loops, and conditional execution. The ZIP archive ready for download includes a few txt files which are sample basic syntax supported nesting and file/string function example (s) .
Source procedures may execute with a command line stating: E.g.: C:/mariabasic77 -e "sample.txt". The (sample1...7.txt) example sources show the code structure necessary to supply for program execution .
