A good online simulator of AppleSoft basic can be found here. This tutorial uses AppleSoft BASIC (a version of BASIC which was supplied with Apple II computers). My choice was based on three things: BASIC is simple (easy to understand, even for a 12-year old, and does not require understanding of complex abstract concepts, present in many more modern languages) BASIC is small (has a small command set, which is easy to memorize) at the same time BASIC still does a good job giving a beginner programmer an idea about how programming works. Here is an excellent article on the subject here I completely agree with. There is a number of opinions about BASIC as first programming language to teach. Some important programming techniques, even if they do not have anyone around to provide tutoring.
