INTRODUCTION

The COMMODORE64 PROGRAMMER'SREFERENCEGUIDE has been

developed as a working tool and reference source for those of you who

want to maximize your use of the built-in capabilities of your COMMO-

DORE64. Thismanual contains the information you need for your pro-

grams, from the simplest example all the way to the most complex. The

PROGRAMMER'SREFERENCEGUIDE is designed so that everyone from

the beginning BASIC programmer to the professional experienced in

6502 machine language can get information to develop his or her own

creative programs. At the same time this book shows you how clever

your COMMODORE 64 really is.

This REFERENCEGUIDE is not designed to teach the BASICpro-

gramming language or the 6502 machine language. There is, however,

an extensive glossary of terms and a "semi-tutorial" approach to many

of the sections in the book. If you don't already have a working knowl-

edge of BASIC and how to use it to program, we suggest that you study

the COMMODORE64 USER'SGUIDE that came with your computer. The

USER'SGUIDE gives you an easy to read introduction to the BASICpro-

gramming language. If you still have difficulty understanding how to use

BASIC then turn to the back of this book (or Appendix N in the USER'S

GUIDE) and check out the Bibliography.

The COMMODORE 64 PROGRAMMER'SREFERENCEGUIDE is just

that; a reference. Like most reference books, your ability to apply the

information creatively really depends on how much knowledge you have

about the subject. In other words if you are a novice programmer you

will not be able to use all the facts and figures in this book until you

expand your current programming knowledge.

What you can do with this book is to find a considerable amount of

valuable programming reference information written in easy to read,

plain English with the programmer's jargon explained. On the other

hand the programming professional will find all the information needed

to use the capabilities of the COMMODORE64 effectively.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

. Our complete "BASIC dictionary" includes Commodore BASIC lan-

guage commands, statements and functions listed in alphabetical

order. We've created a "quick list" which contains all the words

and their abbreviations. This is followed by a section containing a

more detailed definition of each word along with sample BASIC

programs to illustrate how they work.

. If you need an introduction to using machine language with BASIC

programs our layman's overview will get you started.

. A powerful feature of all Commodore computers is called the KER-

NAL. It helps insure that the programs you write today can also be

used on your Commodore computer of tomorrow.

. The Input/Output Programming section gives you the opportunity to

use your computer to the limit. It describes how to hook-up and use

everything from lightpens and joysticks to disk drives, printers, and

telecommunication devices called modems.

.You can explore the world of SPRITES,programmable characters,

and high resolution graphics for the most detailed and advanced

animated pictures in the microcomputer industry.

. You can also enter the world of music synthesis and create your

own songs and sound effects with the best built-in synthesizer

available in any personal computer.

. If you're an experienced programmer, the soft load language sec-

tion gives you information about the COMMODORE64's ability to

run CP/M* and high level languages. This is in addition to BASIC.

Think of your COMMODORE64 PROGRAMMER'SREFERENCEGUIDE

as a useful tool to help you and you will enjoy the hours of programming

ahead of you.
