1) The goal of my question is converting the following source Code (C
Console style) below to source code (Basic Console style) .
.
http://www.neural-networks-at-your-fingertips.com/http://www.neural-networks-at-your-fingertips.com/adaline.htmlhttp://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~jxb/NN/nn.htmlThe conversion from native C/C ++ (C99 standard) to native Basic* is only
used privately to learn / understand / experiment with the behavior of
Neural Net in the basic language
2) I am an experienced programmer in Powerbasic Console Compiler
http://www.powerbasic.com/products/pbcc/ + MS Basic + Console Basic.
.
3) I own the book "Leaping from BASICtoC++by Robert J. Traister (CBreeze++
translation software is missing from my book).
http://reviews.com/review/review_review.cfm?review_id=118137 Review :
"Traister follows the comparative approach to teaching a new language.
First, an example is given in the old language, then it is translated. The
idea is that the reader will see the similarities and differences and
develop a mindset capable of..."

Review:
" Designed for BASIC programmers with no prior knowledge of C++, Leaping
from BASIC to C++ is the first book to cover the transition from BASIC to
C++. The book guides readers - using numerous realistic programming
examples - through the transition from procedural-based BASIC programming to
rudimentary C++ programming, and then provides an introduction to
object-oriented programming in C++. It covers all the major concepts of the
C++ language using BASIC source code examples, which are immediately
followed by their C++ equivalent programs. Includes one floppy disk
containing source code for all of programming examples and portions of
CBreeze++ "
4) My personal view + experience and what I am looking for:
I believe if it possible to convert / translate Basic to C++ (CBreeze++ and
Book) , it is possible to do the reverse and translate from C/C++ to
Basic.
What I am searching with Googlesanswer is someone who will provide me with a
complete integrated system which will allow me to translate ACCURATELY the
source code above into the a Basic source code which after compiling in
Powerbasic or MSBasic or Basic will produce the exact same results .
I'll try to find in the C source code:
- the general structure - Where the main program starts and finishes
- calls to functions and
subroutine
- Reading -writing to files
- Passing of variables
- types of variables
etc..
- These are the tools I'll be looking for:
- software tools
- books
- systems or tricks or what ever
to achieve an EXACT translation giving me the same result under C99 and
Basic
I will use all these tools and my skills to produce a converted program,
compiled in PowerbasicCC
http://www.powerbasic.com/products/pbcc/I am after the person who will give the know_how to go about the entire
process of translation /conversion including the tools needed and
verification technique to measure the accuracy of the Translation/conversion
from C to Basic.
There is NO need of any Graphic User Interface source code because the
console does not need any GUI.
There is no DLL or API , SDK calls because the source codes are all visible.
( I already have the free compiler Dev_C++ to test the original source code
in C)
and PBconsolecompiler4.03
5) I could easily paid someone to translate / convert these programs. But
nothing prove that the translation/conversion will be accurate.
( On a different note: I speak different European languages myself I know
the benefit and problems of automatic. Automatic translators do a great job
but the final translation need to be fine tuned manually - the same for
C/C++ to Basic)
A translation by someone else will stop me to do further modifications and
translate other pieces of code.
I have researched the subject but have NOT been able to find a single C/C++
to Basic translator / converter as one package
I have found the opposite converter from Basic to C/C++
