< language > A dialect of BASIC developed by Dr. Wang [Wong?] in the late 1970s. Tiny BASIC was 2K bytes in size and was loaded from paper tape . It ran on almost any Intel 8080 or Zilog Z80 microprocessor for which the user could provide the necessary I/O driver software.
Tiny BASIC was distributed as [the first ever?] freeware . The program listing contained the following phrases "All Wrongs reserved" and " CopyLeft ", he obviously wasn't interested in money.
