Without starting a flame war or bashing session... What is the first language you learned: verbal and coding Do you still use either on a regular basis? Why or why not? Canadian English and Commodore BASIC Living in the Southern U.S., I still speak English, but, admittedly, it has been... adjusted to use local terms (Y'all, All y'all, you'n's). I still use BASIC variants (VBA mostly in Excel or third party applications), but haven't used any Commodore products since about the late '90s.
English and QuickBASIC yes and no

English and IBM BASIC. God I hated programming in that language, though I think the instructor ("Just use a goto!") had more to do with that than anything. I then learned FORTRAN and the sky became blue and all was right with the world. Now mostly C++, assembly (MIPS), with some C#.

There's not too many MIPS assembly programmers out there. I wonder how much do you know and how much time do you have? I wonder these things because I have a JIT assembler about to go live as a Code Project article. It's a reasonable OO design divided between generic base classes and x86 sub classes. Any one really familiar with MIPS assembly and reasonable with C++ could follow the pattern used for x86 and add MIPS support for the low level assembler at least. Let me know if you're interested.

1A) I speak Greek. Problem is, all languages, 'cept American, are "greek" to me. 2A) BASIC 1B) I still speak Greek, with the same caveat as previous noted. 2B) C# :cool:

English and Tandy Color Computer III BASIC. BASIC -> C -> Assembler -> Pascal -> C++ -> Prolog -> Java -> C# (Not necessarily in this order) With National Instruments' LabVIEW thrown in there too.

An OO design? What do the classes do? I made a JIT assembler for C#, but the design was basically a 2k LOC "Switch of Doom" with some support functions for ModR/M encoding and such.
:laugh: You'll have to wait for the article to find out. As with all good OO code the classes do all of it. There's a low level and a high level assembler, full FPU and MMX support up to SSE4.2. ~24 KLOC. It's all based on AsmJit with the coolest part I've added being JIT functors. I just love calling a function that doesn't exist when I call it and have it work :-D

English and Java. Obviously I still use English, but I don't really use Java a whole lot anymore. I use Delphi for work.

English and Assembly Language. I still speak only English and code in C/C++ which is close enough to the hardware for me so far. Although "beating the system" by saving an instruction or two while achieving the same results in assembly was always rewarding.

At least they were honest, my M68000 assembly lecturer swore that we weren't wasting our time :rolleyes:
