That book was somewhat "old" when I first encountered it as a kid in the 1980s. Most of the code in it was first created for minicomputers in the 1970s, probably running some form of Dartmouth BASIC.

Created maybe but they were published in a sort generic MS BASIC with some tweaking required to get them to run on different machine implementations.
