An easy-to-use programming language is an invaluable tool for quantitative social scientists. I have learned several programming languages including C/C++, Java, Python, Pascal. My favorite language right now is FreeBasic (http://www.freebasic.net/). It is highly compatible with the once widely used QBasic and is 100% free. There are several editors that can be used with FreeBasic on Windows, including the one I am using, FbEdit (http://www.radasm.com/fbedit/). The picture on the left shows how to debug a FreeBasic program using Insight, a frontend of GNU debugging tool, GDB.Thursday, June 07, 2007
