-There are many statements available to you in BASIC, but here are a few that can get you started and will work across many BASIC interpreters.  Check out the BASIC Reference Manuals section below for all the statements available for a particular system.  Statement names and syntax can vary a bit. These examples are run under [[unix_survival|UNIX System V]] on the [[lcm3b2|AT&T 3B2 1000-70]] using the Bell Labs BASIC interpreter, but are generic enough to run on any of the BASIC systems available.
