Re: Silly Questions
No, you won’t. LIST will show the BASIC program as it is in memory. For example, the first two bytes you give in your example - 0, 10 - is the line number “10”. The machine code instructions are never stored anywhere, the BASIC is interpreted line by-line as the program is ran. This is completely di...

Re: Silly Questions
BASIC is interpreted on-the-fly, not compiled, so you won’t ever see the actual assembly call in the listing.

Re: The hidden program on a blank tape...
I remember these from back in the day, I had quite a few. You’d be kinda curious about the program, but knew it wouldn’t amount to much as the type-in listings in the magazines and books of the day would be much longer to produce anything of merit.

Re: How to fully use the 1K ZX81
I’ve just started reading this. Although we both code the Zeddy for very different types of game styles I’m sure it will be interesting. I have noticed an error though on page 2, where you state that 2 bytes will be needed to store values up to 655536… There’s another further down in the Scoring sec...
