CHAPTER 4 — The INPUT Statement

In this chapter you will learn about the QBasic INPUT statement. The INPUT statement gets data from the computer keyboard.

Chapter Topics

Up until now in these notes, all the data a program uses have been part of the program itself. For example:

' Calculate Miles per Gallon
'
LET MILES = 45678.3 - 45149.6
LET GALLONS = 12.5
PRINT MILES / GALLONS
END

The data is the first odometer reading (45149.6), the second odometer reading (45678.3), and the number of gallons.

QUESTION 1:

Will this program do the same thing each time it is run?
