Question

Is BASIC (beginners All-purpose symbolic instruction code) anything like Python.

Answer 1

Yep!!!! I'm currently a school student now and I learned this language two years ago. It was one of the nine chapters in our computer science book.

Talking about its similarities with python, in my view yes!!!!
It is very similar to python in terms of its 'syntax'. I didn't learn it deeply and just learned about how to get user input and printing right triangle.
I remember it has a for-next loop instead of for-loop in python and a while-next loop instead of while loop in python.
I should say that it's syntax is quite similar to python 2 rather than python 3.

Answer 2

I wrote a tiny bit of C64 basic as a child, about 30 years ago.

When I started with Python, I thought: 'Hey, that's not too different from what I did back then...'

Answer 3

yes, somehow similar, because
both are language, both basic is a high level language
