Re: Learning PASCAL and BASIC

My friend actually asked me how she could learn them---she's going to be a Business major at Susquehanna, and she's looking to place out of one of the basic computer courses---the sheet read:
Quote:
This exam tests you knowledge of the use of word processing software, spreadsheet software and either a procedural language (such as BASIC or PASCAL) or database software. Since you may have gained this experience with any software on any microcomputer, the test is designed to assess your suitability for exemption from the required Using Computers component of the University Core. If you do not have experience with all three of the areas above, you should not plan to take this test.
On one hand, I'm almost certain that she'll receive a test on Microsoft Access or somesuch database program, but she'd like to be prepared for BASIC and PASCAL, too.
