SmallBASIC inclui funções trigonométricas, matriciais e algébricas, uma poderosa biblioteca de strings, comandos de sistema e gráficos, além de sintaxe de programação estruturada.

NOTA: Este *não* é o "Small Basic" da Microsoft. Este é o SmallBASIC de código aberto com licença GPL versão 3, originalmente desenvolvido para o Palm Pilot e posteriormente portado para os dispositivos Franklin eBookman e Nokia 770.

Alguns dos recursos do SmallBASIC são:

- SmallBASIC é uma linguagem BASIC multiplataforma: atualmente, Linux, Windows e Android são suportados.

- A linguagem é bastante compacta: o instalador do Debian para Linux, por exemplo, vem como um único arquivo de 340 KB.

- SmallBASIC apresenta um conjunto bastante abrangente de funções matemáticas.

- É uma linguagem interpretada que dispensa execuções de compilação.

- O SmallBASIC suporta programação estruturada, estruturas definidas pelo usuário e arquivos-fonte modularizados. No entanto, não é orientado a objetos.

- Também apresenta bastante flexibilidade em questões de sintaxe: para muitos comandos, existem alternativas e, para muitas construções, existem diferentes sinônimos disponíveis.

- O SmallBASIC vem com sua própria pequena IDE.

- Primitivas gráficas (como linhas, círculos, etc.) são fornecidas, bem como som e funções gráficas simples.

O SmallBASIC foi originalmente criado para o assistente digital pessoal Palm Pilot no final da década de 1990 por Nicholas Christopoulos.

Users appreciate the helpful help system and the app's utility for hobbyist programmers. However, many are frustrated by its unintuitive user interface, keyboard compatibility problems, and confusing file management. Bugs and missing features such as audio playback and graphical functions limit its usability. Lack of beginner-friendly tutorials and complex navigation make it challenging for new users to adopt. Overall, it is a powerful tool that requires improvements in usability and stability. ### Pros - The app offers a wide range of BASIC commands and features suitable for programming on the go. - It includes a helpful built-in help system and good documentation on the website. - The app runs programs with good speed compared to other BASIC interpreters on Android. - It supports writing and saving BASIC programs, enabling hobbyists and programmers to fulfill their programming interests. - The app is appreciated for bringing SmallBasic functionality to Android and Chromebook devices, making programming more accessible on mobile platforms. ### Cons - The user interface and editor are not intuitive, with menu options sometimes overlapping or being difficult to navigate. - Many users report severe keyboard compatibility issues; both Samsung and Google keyboards often fail to work properly, preventing typing. - The app's file management is confusing, with program files saved in inaccessible or unclear folders, making exporting and importing programs difficult. - There are bugs and limitations such as problems with string arrays storing ASCII 0, graphics handling, missing or non-functional commands like audio playback, and a silent program size limit causing errors. - Lack of beginner-friendly guidance and tutorials within the app makes it hard to learn and use, especially for those new to BASIC or the app's unique interface. ## Similar extensions and apps - [BASIC Programming Compiler](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.krazeapps.basicprogrammingcompiler) — 189,550 users, 2.74 / 5 - [Touch BASIC](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.hawwash.touchbasic) — 18,439 users, 3.67 / 5 - [Easy BASIC - CBM Flavor](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.hawwash.easybasic) — 703 users - [Basic for Android -F](https://chrome-stats.com/d/and.basf) — 18,558 users, 3.47 / 5 - [QuackBASIC: Code in BASIC](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ammonite.quackbasic) — 2,566 users - [Basic for Android](https://chrome-stats.com/d/and.bas) — 4,533 users, 3.71 / 5 - [BBCBasic](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.rtrussell.bbcbasic) — 7,211 users, 3.88 / 5 - [Compilerz – Code Compile Run](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.infoclifftech.compilerz) — 6,970 users - [Vintage BASIC games](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.konyisoft.vintage_basic_games) — 1,085 users - [SmartCalc Pro](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.qff.smartcalcpro) — 6,215 users - [BASIC!
