QBASIC is a very simple, quick, and, easy to learn programming language; this makes it frequently a 'favourite' amongst, especially, people who are 'beginning' programmers.
Learning QBASIC introduces you to all of the necessary programming fundamentals; including, such things as...
literals(string/numerical)
variables(single/or, multiple: array variables/multi-dimensional array variables; different variable types(string/integer/single precision/double precision); variable scope: local/global/parameter passing)
modular code(functions/sub-routines/too, calling code stored in seperate files)
loops(for/next-enumeration loop, do/while-entry contorolled loop, do/until-exit controlled loop)
decision(if-then-else-end if/switch-case)
operators(comparison: <,>,<=,>=,<>,=; logical: NOT/OR/AND; mathematical: +,-,*,/,^)
graphics(pset/line/circle)
sounds(play: ABCDEFG)
-etc.
As well as, it's capable of producing many different kinds of program...
-mathematical
-database
-games
-etc.
I'm NOT saying here that QBASIC is the 'best' programming language to go and learn; as the truth is there are far more highly advanced programming languages out there such as those that use OOP-Object Oriented Programming, for example, Visual BASIC; however, once you've already gone and learned how to use QBASIC, first; then, you should find it relatively straight forwards, and, easy to go and learn almost ANY other programming language; whether it's a BASIC related programming language or not.
NOTE: QBASIC descends from the BASIC family of programming languages.
I myself did learn, QBASIC, first; then, later, went on to study learning Visual BASIC/VBScript/ASP/HTML/CSS/Javascript/Java/XML/PHP/Pascal/Ruby/LOGO/-etc.; and, this is all thanks to my having gone and learned QBASIC to begin with; which, then, gave me a 'taste' for acquiring multiple different programming languages.
