BASIC programming

Does anyone know of any free ebooks about programming especially for the Amstrad 464?

Paper Books are "better"for learning programming skills

Hi,
My own experience is that paper books are easier to use, when educating ones
self about programming. I dont know what country you are from but in the US there are a few large used book seller collectives, "ABES" and Alibis" come to mind. The prices for computer books are very cheap, in fact the highest cost is for shipping. I just purchased two volumes, one about Visual Basic and another for SQL for only $7.00.

Amstrad 464? Seriously? Just out of curiosity, what is prompting this question?
Is programming a 464 something you are likely to do?

I had an Amstrad 464 in the seventies and I have just downloaded Winape32; I just like the old Arnold!

I felt like I had gone back in time... I did a double take for a moment.

Wow... time travel much? Not only are you asking about how to program the thing almost 30 years after it was released, you apparently had it 10 years before it was released!

All the chatter got me interested and I dug around to find out what machine this was. Being from the US, it's a bit of an alien to my experience. I did find this link on the 464's Locomotive BASIC.
