Yes. I also started with C64 Basic. As far as I remember you could only have single-letter variables. Is this correct?

The language you feel most comfortable in does colour your thinking. (Or vice versa?) So just don't stop learning languages.

They gave you two letters, I'm pretty sure. But I've mostly forgotten.

I do remember that the syntax made spaces were unnecessary.
