What was your first programming language? - Poll by Joe Dwyer

  • Artigo

My first programming language was BASIC. I took a class at Fullerton College. All I knew at that point was that I wanted to make games and software. So I was learning everything I could. I started with BASIC, but I wish Small Basic was around back then. I would have taught myself (saved some money) and had a blast in the process!

So what was your first programming language?

You might want to check out Joe's Principles of Programming, which is available on Amazon.com. It uses Small Basic to teach basic concepts of programming for kids and beginners.

    MY first was FORTRAN which sort of dates me. My second was a version of BASIC alled Basic Plus. I've been a fan of BASIC ever since.

    Yes! Fortran! Did you find it easy to learn on? Do you wish you would have learned on BASIC or Small Basic instead?

    Pascal was what I learned first. First assignment was writing a calculator program.

    My first language was BASIC from my TI-99 4a connected to my TV.   It was great to save programs to the cassette recorder!

    Ed, I read a book about NEC TK-80 and understood programing at the first time in 1979.

    My first was Apple Integer BASIC (Wozniak), then AppleSoft BASIC.  I think Bill wrote that version himself  8^)
