The '''Exidy Sorcerer''' was one of a profusion of personal computer models, with different system software, available in the late 1970s and early 1980s, before things settled down to a smaller set of platforms by the end of the '80s. It came with a version of the [[BASIC]] programming language (adapted, like many BASICs, from Microsoft BASIC), which, like most BASICs of the time, stored its commands in tokenized form.

The Exidy Sorcerer was one of a profusion of personal computer models, with different system software, available in the late 1970s and early 1980s, before things settled down to a smaller set of platforms by the end of the '80s. It came with a version of the BASIC programming language (adapted, like many BASICs, from Microsoft BASIC), which, like most BASICs of the time, stored its commands in tokenized form.
