8BASIC theory 1/6 : why 8BASIC?

8BASIC (C) is a BASIC interpreter developed by manufacturer G.G in 2010 for the homemade Z80/AM95 8 bit NANO COMPUTER.

 

Due to the strong mathematical support of the AM9511 processor, the interpreter offers floating-point arithmetic and is just hold in 3KB of EPROM memory.

 

The most interesting feature of the 8BASIC is that each statement is eight characters fixed-length, which exactly fits the computer's LED display.
