An interpreter written in Java from scratch for a subset of the BASIC language.

This is a project that I made for a university exam about Java programming language.
The documentation is written in Italian, sorry... I'm going to translate it as soon as I have some spare time!

By the way, the interpreter can manage some basic constructs in the BASIC language like:

• IF-THEN-ELSE
• FOR loops
• WHILE loops
• variables with automatic types (like javascript)
• two kind of basic types: strings and numbers (implemented as doubles)
• logic and arithmetic expressions
• support for nested control structures
• a PRINT function that prints a variable or the result of an expression (both logical or arithmetical) on screen
• an INPUT function that takes a variable in input (from the user's keyboard)

Of course it's a basic project, but it's something I used to understand some basic principles of programming and compiler's structure. Hope that will help you as well!
