Catalog Description:
Untitled document
Introduction to BASIC language and how to use it to analyze electronic circuits. Programs will be developed on IBM-compatible computers that parallel theory presented in Elec 60 & 61. Course begins with covering statements, commands, and functions of BASIC and progresses to applications used in the electronic industry. No previous programming experience is required.

Prerequisites/Corequisites:
ELEC 60, ELEC 60L and ELEC 90A or equivalents with a grade of "C" or better; ELEC 61 completed or in progress.
