BASIC:  an interpreted language that uses English-like syntax and a
linear programming model.  Modern versions include QBASIC (QuickBASIC),
and the more powerful Visual BASIC.  It's a good language for slopping
around in, because it is not procedure-oriented like C or Pascal.

guru:  very knowledgeable person; master; swami.
