History
Sinclair BASIC was originally developed in 1979 to fit in the 4 kB of ROM available on the Sinclair ZX80.
It was initially an incomplete implementation of the 1978 ANSI minimal BASIC standard and evolved through the 8 kB ROM ZX81 and TS1000 to be an almost complete version in the 16 kB ROM ZX Spectrum.
