I can't tutor you in real time or in person, but I can give you some skill building assignments if you want.
Lesson 1: Make a program that prints out "Hello World"
Lesson 2: Variables and input
Declare a string variable with VAR or DIM then use INPUT to ask the user their name and PRINT out Hello plus the name "Hello Stewart" for example. Warning Name$ is a reserved word, use a different variable.
Lesson 3: Type conversion of integer to string. Building on the last lesson. Add another variable an integer this time. Ask the user's age. Then print it out using STR$ to cast it to string so you can concatenate strings with +
Lesson 4:If then else.
Building on the last lesson add code to check the age. Tell the user if they are young, old, or something inbetween based on their age. Feel free to make your own age brackets.
Lesson 5 functions.
Build two functions using DEF (we are returning a value so use parenthesis around the variable list). One function will convert temperature from Farenheit to Celsius and the other from Celsius to Farenheit. Use RETURN to send the result to the caller. There should code that asks the user for a temperature in farenheit and prints the temperature in celsius.
Lesson 6: Loops
Make a program that prints the numbers 1 to 10, but do it three different ways, once with a for/next loop, once with a while/wend loop, and once more with a repeat/until loop.
Lesson 7: string operations. Given the string "This is a test" Write a program that prints the first four words using LEFT$, then have it print out the last 5 characters with RIGHT$. Finally use a FOR loop to write out each character in the string individually using MID$. Bonus points if you ask the user for a string to work on using INPUT.
None of these should involve much time or code.
