Cybiko B2C

BASIC to C

The Cybiko B2C (Basic to C) compiler gives the BASIC programmer the same processing power as an SDK/C programmer. B2C has all the power of CyBasic plus:

• Sprite-oriented Bit-mapped graphics
• 3D Graphics
• Multiplayer (Wireless) capability
• Music (foreground/background)
• Simple Dialog Boxes
• Fonts
• Inline C calls
• Menus
• High Scores for games
• Vibrate
• Fixed point arithmetic variables (decimals)

Also:

• Installing B2C
• Tutorial
• Commands

When a B2C program is compiled it is translted into a C file. Then, the C program is passed through the Cybiko SDK/C compiler resulting in a true Cybiko application (.app) file. Note: 2C does not work with the latest 3.1.4 Pro SDK, use the Standard 2.1 version instead. A compiled CyBasic program can run from 5 to 10 times faster than with interpreted CyBasic. One needn't know anything about C programming to use B2C.

B2C is delivered with several example programs including side scrollers, 3d graphics, and playfield graphics. There is even a book on Lulu.com with all the documentation published in printed form.
