Last view: 5942 days 		I thought I was awesome back around 1999 when I discovered QBASIC on my mom's 386. My parents, being my parents, bought me "Visual Basic 6 for Dummies" (which included a demo copy of VB) that Christmas.

I played with it. I didn't understand it though, my feeble 9-year-old brain probably couldn't grasp most concepts of programming. In a language like VB, that's doubly bad or something.

Anyway, I kinda gave up on all forms of programming for a while. I purchased some book on C++ around 2001, which included Visual C++ 6. I still didn't get it.

Around the end of 2003, I noticed that Quake (which was one of my favorite games at the time) was released as open-source. I downloaded the code and played with it for a while. I wasn't sure of what was going on, but I found some tutorials and stuff, and I kinda eventually figured out how it all worked.

So basically, I now know C because of Quake. Awesome.

Between that time and now, I've played with most languages, but I use C, PHP, and Python the most. I could solve a given problem in quite a few languages actually.

void func(int arg1, char *arg2)

{

    if(arg1 == 5)

        printf("pass\n");

    if(arg2[0] == 's')

    {

     /* remember, this isn't python, so use braces where things are ambiguous.

        otherwise, the second if will fall through to the else, not the first */

        if(!strcmp(arg2, "string"))

            printf("fail\n");

    }

    else

        printf("fail more\n");

}

Last view: 5942 days 		I play quite a few...starting with piano for almost 6 years.

With my school band I've played alto sax (freshman year-half of sophomore), marimba (second half of sophomore year-now), and trombone (very recently, only because we either needed brass coverage (it's hard with only 25 people!) or because marching in a parade basically calls for a more portable instrument). I really want to try trumpet though.

I also kinda sorta play baritone with a sort of introductory program to the CT Hurricanes (drum corps). They just replaced their entire horn line with ones in Bb, but ours are in G
