How about a BASIC that uses Labels instead of line numbers, and actual names for variables - some of the statements are different, for example instead of ‘Input’ labelbasic uses ‘ask’ (Each statment begins with a unique letter)

There have been variations on BASIC that use labels since at least the '80s.
And this one is mine. Built on the ideas that I thought would be cool.
And variable names, too … not sure why OP is reinventing the wheel here.
Why doesn’t [thing I’m not aware of] exist?
Actually, I do use BWBasic sometimes. I also created another language, NewTiny, which is also on Codeberg. https://codeberg.org/WasPentalive/newtiny.git
If only there were some way to discover information.
Learning experience?
Because I did not have a wheel of my own? Because I wanted to?
But you can already use the wheel. You could build a better mousetrap, but instead, you made something else, but with fewer features.
Yep. I remember moving from the C128 to the Amiga and go ooh.
Still cool that OP is coding their own BASIC interpreter though.
Thanks Whaleross, I don’t know why some people have to look a gift horse in the mouth.
