Comments:

This book was written for the person who wants to get the most out of his or her ATARI computer. If you have a good understanding of BASIC hut want to know how to get more special effects, more sounds, and more graphics from your computer, this book is for you. Every program is explained in detail so that after you enter the program and understand how it works, you can use this knowledge in writing Jour own pro grams.  

All the pro grams will run on any ATARI personal computer. The ATARI BASIC cartridge CXL4002 and ATARI DOS (for disk programs) were used in creating them.  

Memory locations that are used by the Operating System are presented. Explanations are given on how to change their values for different programming effects. The chapters on the disk explain the file structure to give you control over the drive. Everything is included here to make you an Advanced Programmer!  

There is a chapter on creating your own character sets, mixing graphic modes, using the player/missile graphics, and flipping screens. You will even learn how to enter a machine- language subroutine to play music while a BASIC pro gram is running!
