Talk:BASIC interpreter

The article is missing the following, at the least:

• Useful diagram summarizing the typical architecture of a BASIC interpreter
• Discussion of the earliest BASIC interpreters, which were written for minicomputers
• Discussion of two interpreters that predated Altair BASIC:
  • One a government-funded project, programmed on a minicomputer for an 8008
  • SCELBAL, for the 8008
• The ANSI standardization of BASIC
• Support for computed GOTO, in Integer BASIC as well as Tiny BASIC (e.g., GOTO 100*X instead of ON X GOTO 100, 200, 300)
