Title: BAYSICK - an embedded Insane-specific Language for Scala 

implementing a subset of BASIC 

Abstract: 

Scala is considered as one of the candidates for the Next Big 

Language, while BASIC was the First Programming Language for many of 

us. This short talk will show you the implementation of BASIC as an 

internal DSL in Scala. While commercial usefulness of it is dubious, 

Baysick is a neat example of some of the interesting features of Scala 

and brings back childhood (8-bit) memories like madeleine cake in 

Proust's novel.
