# T/S 2068 Basics and Beyond

Polish your BASIC programming skills with T/S 2068 Basics and Beyond.

Designed for beginning and intermediate BASIC programmers, this book offers a collection of tips and techniques that contribute to easier and better programming. You’ll develop a working knowledge of the finer points of T/S BASIC– including many programming methods and commands not found in the Timex/Sinclair 2068 user’s manual.

T/S 2068 Basics and Beyond offers over 120 short demonstration, game, and utility programs that show creative BASIC programming in action. Sharon Aker includes programs that can

- perform complex mathematical calculations
- generate random numbers
- use trigonometric functions
- make music and sound effects
- create graphics in over 100 colors
- coordinate sound and graphics and much more.

Both new and experienced programmers will benefit from the line-by-line explanations that accompany each program. And a helpful “Quick Tips” section can save you time, effort, and frustration when writing programs.
