Description

RFO BASIC! is a dialect of Dartmouth Basic that allows you to write and run programs directly on your Android device.

There is a 200+ page manual available in pdf/docx format or online at http://mougino.free.fr/rfo-basic/manual/

Join the 2,500+ users of BASIC! in the official forum at:
https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/rfobasic/

In addition to the traditional Basic features, you have access to:

Graphical User Interface with the GW lib,
Graphics (with Multi-touch),
Build User Interfaces with HTML and JavaScript,
SQL,
GPS,
Device Sensors,
Music Play,
Text to Speech,
Voice Recognition,
Sound Pools,
Audio Recording,
Tone Generation,
Camera,
Data Structures such as:Array/List/Stack/Bundle
Internet Browsing,
Text and Byte file I/O,
Encryption,
User defined functions,
FTP Client,
TCP/IP Client and Server Sockets,
Bluetooth,
Send Emails,
Make a phone call,
Superuser access (on rooted devices)

BASIC! programs may be compiled into stand-alone applications that can be offered on the Android Market. This can be done with the BASIC Compiler available at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rfo.compiler
Another process is to generate a home screen shortcut but it requires BASIC! installed to run and the app cannot be shared.

All of the features of BASIC! are documented in the manual, De Re BASIC! accessible at http://mougino.free.fr/rfo-basic/manual/

The install package includes over three dozen BASIC! source code files that explain and demonstrate the implementation details of this dialect.

BASIC! is being continuously improved. Many of the improvements have come from user requests. Also, since BASIC! is open source, others have begun on the code. Join the BASIC! forum and become part of the development team.

Permissions: This application asks for many permissions. None of the permissions are exercised by BASIC! on its own. They are only exercised if you, the BASIC! programmer, writes a program that exercises them. For example, BASIC! will never make a phone call unless you use the PHONE.CALL command in a program that you write.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★I've been using this compiler for years and I've noticed that the help file doesn't contain helpful code Snippets repeat Snippets. I'm not talkin huge source files that demonstrate a command I'm talking about short code Snippets that clearly and simply demonstrate how a command is used. Just like the good old days in QuickBASIC 4.5 As they say a picture is worth a thousand words.
5 ★This one of my main android app in any device. Probably one of the most important reasons for my change from iOS to android because android allows Basic RFO to use all the phone/tablet resources. If you know/like programming then you have to test this. 6 stars out of 5 ;-)
5 ★Excellent program, possibility to code on device and then with the compiler compile on the device!
5 ★Simple. works great.
2 ★Good
