- Benchmarking Basic on Vintage Computers (techtinkering.com)
There are a few machines I’m quite interested in comparing so I decided to create a simple Basic benchmark to get an idea of their relative speed. The benchmark tests 7 aspects and is inspired by qsbb, which is included with the qlay Sinclair QL emulator. The Basic source code for all the machines tested is available in the GitHub repo. I chose Basic because it was available on all the machines I wanted to test and because the versions I created for each machine would require few changes.
- East Fork Lewis River (Wikipedia)
The East Fork Lewis River is a river in the state of Washington in the United States. It is the largest tributary of the Lewis River. Its source is on Green Lookout Mountain in Skamania County. It then flows to the west through Clark County until it converges with the Lewis about 3.5 mi (5.6 km) upstream from the Columbia River.
