When did you write your first code line?

...and why, you did it?

 

First code line? what do you mean?

 

when? when i was in school and why? because i need to

 

I was coding 5 years ago.

 

About 1989 when I got my first home computer (an Amstrad CPC).

Why? Because I wanted to know how to do it/ if others could do it I thought I should be able to. That said it was something simple basic like:

10 Print "hello"
20 Goto 10

 

When I was in college, doing Bachelor degree.

 

When I was 12.

 

8 years ago. When dial up was rife... like the plague

 

The 1st code I wrote : write('Hello !'); in Pascal. That year is 1994

 

In 2004. Except if html can be considered as 'code', then it's 2002.

 

In about 1996 I learned a tiny bit of HTML when it was very messy, and then I started toying around with mIRC scripts. I liked that I could manipulate the dialog boxes and make scripts do some things. I did it because I find it fun and it's the way I think!

 

Christmas day, many many years ago. I found a tutorial on doing a simple calculator in PHP and was curious to see how it worked.

 

1981... GW-Basic. I wrote a program that generated a financial report that otherwise took about 30 minutes to create manually, using an adding machine, pencil, and accounting paper. The program did it in about 30 seconds. Now that I think about it, it hits me that that was just about 30 years ago. My have things changed.

The machine I used was a Sharp PC-1211 (first handheld computer) also known as the portable TRS-80 (trash eighty). Some history

 

does anyone remember punch cards in high school? Me neither.

 

I think mine was a long time ago and I was trying to make a webpage or something, I'm not sure I was like 13

 

when = 5year ago
starts with console.write('hello world');

 

3 years ago.

It was MsgBox("Hello World!")

 

11 years ago...started with HTML, then ASP classic.

 

7 years ago,I was wanting something different to do with my time

 

In 1997 in college (C code).
