I am still a favourite of old fa****oned Q basic.

I think it is good to know the basics in a simple way.
It maybe slower than C++ but it is easy.

And you can make  very sophisticated programs with it.

At the moment writing a condenced detachment theorem creator.

It does work, not quickly (But still faster than me) not nice and
****ny (no grahics and so)
But still it works. (except that it still has some unresolved
problems)

and it really shows that logic is nothing else than the manipulation
of meaningless symbols...

Ps do it in the interpretor, not in the compilor and add lots of tests
that interrupt the program when something was not the way you thought
you programmed it.


Good luck
