PRODUCT NAME: BASIC-11/IAS-RSX, Version 2
DESCRIPTION:
BASIC is a conversational programming language
which uses simple English-like statements and familiar mathematical notation to describe a procedure.

BASIC-11/IAS-RSX features include:
• A variety of program manipulation commands including commands for saving, editing, running and
retrieving BASIC programs.
• Support for real, integer, and string data types.
• Immediate mode statements for debugging and
desk calculator use.
• Sequential data storage using the lAS and RSX-11
file system.
• String capability; including string arrays and functions.
• Virtual arrays for string, integer, and real data
types.
• Chaining with COMMON to accommodate large
programs.
• CALL facility for invoking assembly language subroutines using a PDP-11 FORTRAN compatible
calling interface.
• Formatted output using the PRINT USING statement.
• Multiple users can share the BASIC interpreter's
pure code.
MINIMUM HARDWARE REQUIRED:
Any valid lAS, RSX-11 D, or RSX-11 M operating system configuration that meets the following requirements:
One of the following is required for installation:
• RK05 disk cartridge drive
• RL01 disk Cartrigde drive
• TU10 magnetic tape drive (7- or 9-track)
• TS03 magnetic tape drive
• TU16 magnetic tape drive
• RK06 disk Cartridge Drive
• RK07 disk Cartridge Drive
Auxiliary Storage:
Requires up to 75 contiguous disk blocks on a mass
storage device for the interpreter and STOP task images.

Main Memory:
• lAS and RSX-11 D:
1. A 30K-byte minimum partition area for the first
user.
2. 10K-byte minimum partition area for each additional user.
• RSX-11M:
1. Unmapped systems (memory management
option not included in the configuration)-a 30Kbyte minimum partition (supports one user, BASIC-11 is overlaid)
2. Mapped Systems (memory management option
is included in the configuration)-one of the following:
• For systems in which the interpreter code is
not installed as shared code - a 30K-byte
minimum partition area for each user
• For systems in which the interpreter code is
installed as shared code - one 30K-byte minimum common partition area (shared by all
users), with a 10K-byte minimum partition area
for each user
A dditional Hardware:
KT11 memory management is required for RSX-11 M
(mapped system) to support two or more concurrent
users.
OPTIONAL HARDWARE:
None
