SelecType exercise
You don’t need to know anything about programming for this
exercise because it is merely for practice. If you would rather not use
BASIC, use your word processing or business program to create a
short file or document of the type you will usually print.
If you do want to use BASIC for this exercise, simply turn on your
computer and printer and load BASIC. Then type the short
program listed below. Only the words inside the quotation marks
are printed. You can put anything you want there. (If your version of
BASIC does not use LPRINT, consult your BASIC manual.)
