List start,end 
Is standard Dartmouth basic from Kemeny & Kurtz - (aka K&K) which was the equivalent of K&R in those days.  [i think I have my Dad’s copy from they early 1960’s - which is what he taught me with in 1967].

And Yes DEC basic supported it 

Sent from my PDP-7 Running UNIX V0 expect things to be almost but not quite.
