RE: What Was Your First Programming Language?
For a beginning I was not choosing the language, I was just lucky to approach a machine and then used what was available.
Computers ZX81: Basic / Z80 assembly Oric Atmos: Basic / 6502 assembly Atari ST: C and 68000 assembly (best processor ever) Finally started to work on PC. - learned Pascal at school and was so frustrated I didn't know C++ - learned C++ and OO with Borland C++ then moved on MS MFC and now Qt Calculators TI57 > HP15C > HP Prime (basic meh) > Hp 50g uRPL (and deliberate decision to not learn sysRPL and/or assembly) All the rest The list is long but this basically what I started with and after all these years I came to the conclusion that the language is less important than the libraries. MFC was a pain and I didn't want to learn .NET which I found too cumbersome and too MS proprietary solution. At the moment I do a lot of coding on Qt and started recently QML which was surprisingly good after you understand how to structure an app. I have no nostalgia for "good old time", nowadays solutions are better, thanks god. |
