I suppose it would be preferable to IMAGINARYbasic sqrt(-5.0) . . .
Despite which it is a powerful and professional development environment with many unique advantages. There are several books about it, including an O'Reilly 'Definitive Guide'
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/realbasic2/
a bimonthly print magazine 'REALbasic developer' http://www.rbdeveloper.com/
a usenet group comp.lang.basic.realbasic, mailing lists, companies providing plugins and components such as http://www.einhugur.com/ - and of course thousands of applications written using it ranging from freeware to a $795 CAD program http://www.algonet.se/~ludesign/
I'm a (mostly) happy user. Apart from that name :-)
