About 14 (mid '70s). I think it was a PDP-11, used a 300 baud modem to connect with it as it was in the school district's admin office. Used thermal paper output. We must have wasted the equivalent of reams of paper writing and playing our Star Trek program in BASIC!! Looked at it few years later in college, what a mass of spaghetti code!! :-D

How old were you when you first wrote a line of code ? -
Why we call them bugs???Much older, think "fly in the ointment" older. :)
If debugging is the process of removing bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in. ~Edsger Dijkstra

What's your favourite 'Worst Film'Being There - Peter Sellers last movie (if I remember correctly) When I first saw it, lots of people left the theater, they were expecting a more Clouseau-type character. I never pass up a chance to see it, but haven't seen the original ending credits since...it was an out take that Peter never got right and the scene never made it into the movie.
