        Yeah, nowadays too much choice and not enough quality.

                On the C64, I had basic, but then had to write some routines in pure machine code because I did not have a compiler. Then I bought C++ for it.

                        I used Basic on a printer terminal which needed number, and FORTRAN IV with punch cards. They were a real pain. Extensively used Assembly language on a computer called Sigma 9, which had an instruction set similar to the IBM 360. Then FORTRAN 77.

                          Apple Basic on an Apple II+. A year later, Fortran on punch cards. Two years later, Z-80 and 6502 assembly. (Around that time, there was a cool "Basic" for the Apple II which was really a macro assembler. Don't remember the name.)

                              basic, on one of these[^] circa '81 till about 4 weeks later when we got banned from using it by my dad (was about 6 then). Amazing what you can do with IF, READ, GOTO and ECHO.

                                FORTRAN II was first, followed by years of writing in multiple languages on different platforms - ASM, hpl, GD-BASIC, HP-BASIC, Pascal, Ada, blah, blah...

                                  Radio? what's a radio? :) I only took one thing apart as a kid and that incurred the wrath of my parents. We went to an auntie's house and she had a rather handsome mechanical clock. It's ticking grasped my attention. While they were in the garden, I set about taking the clock to pieces, without tools. In those days it was legal to smack a kid and I felt it. :) :((

                                    Fortran II. Before that, I had read the manual and understood Assembler on the IBM 1401 but didn't write any code in that.

                                      Xerox Data Systems made the Sigma series. I have used a Sigma 5. I don't think the Sigma had the complexity of the IBM 360 assembler which had register-to-register (2-byte), register-to-memory (4-byte)and memory-to-memory (6-byte) instructions.
