PROGRAMMING IN BASIC II - Built-in Functions

-
Introduction  In the context of BASIC programming, built-in functions are  predefined procedures that perform specific tasks, simplifying programming and making it more efficient .  These functions are like "ready-made" programs that accept data, process it, and return a result, avoiding the need to write the same code repeatedly.  Key Concepts: Function Definition: A function is a structure that simplifies a complex operation into a single step, like a "black box". Built-in Functions: These are predefined functions in BASIC that perform various operations. Function Arguments: Functions often require input values, called arguments, to perform their operations. Return Value: After processing the input, a function returns a value, which can be used in other parts of the program.     Benefits of Using Built-in Functions: Simplified Programming: Built-in functions reduce the need to write complex code, saving time and effort. Improved Readability: Using built-i...
