A Guide to Effective Programming 400/800 Home Computer This manual is about the ATARI Home Computer. It covers both the ATARI 400" and the ATARI 800" Computers. These two computers are electrically identical, differing only in mechanical features such as the keyboards and cartridge slots. The purpose of this manual is to explain in detail how to use all the features of the ATARI Computer. Because this is a complex and powerful machine, the explanations are accordingly rather long. Furthermore, they demand some expertise on the part of the reader. This book is not intended for the beginning programmer. The reader should be thoroughly familiar with the BASIC Reference Manual, which is provided with the computer. Familiarity with assembly language is also essential. A glossary in the back defines and explains some of the less commonly encountered jargon. However, this glossary does not include terms that every serious personal computer programmer should already know.
