What is PBASIC?
PBASIC (Parallax BASIC) is a hybrid form of the BASIC programming language in which many people are familiar with. Currently there are two versions of PBASIC, PBASIC1 for the BASIC Stamp I and PBASIC2 for the BASIC Stamp II. Each version is specifically tailored to take advantage of the inherent features of the hardware it runs on. PBASIC is called a hybrid because, while it contains some simplified forms of the normal BASIC control constructs, it also has special commands to efficiently control the I/ O pins.
