Im astonished that the most of people voted for (programming for fun) I thought people who loves programming would like to work in the same field mostly !!!!!!! :eek:
Hi-I am a Uni student doing computing..I am learning C++---guess what? wether I follow this line of work or not-I still do programming for fun.........................may go on to Java or even system analysis-or even design...who knows? NOT ME.
I program for fun.......i started programing to learn hacking, but then figuered out that there was a lot to it then just hacking and i can't just read a book and become a pro hacker in a day or two. well i do code once in a while, but i can't do it now because i lost my damn compiler!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad: stupid cd, now i hafta buy another one:mad: oh yeah, i'm trying to learn SQL too, but those stupid clauses! makes me so mad:mad:
and i just had to ask this!
mario, did u learn VB, ASP and SQL, in here(meaning earth) or back in ur planet? just curious!:D
That's 'cause most of us here are teenagers. I may be programming for fun and learning on my own right now, but once I get out of high school I will go to college (probably for a software engineer degree or computer science or whatever i decide to choose that relates to programming). After that I hope to become a professional programmer...Quote:

Well, it goes something like that for me.
I started out as a Network Admin who assisted with code maintenance when we had only one other developer in my office (our companies primary business is not software). When he was promoted I was bumped up to his former position though I still have some basic Admin tasks (changing server backup tapes, running cat-5 cable, installing new employees Novell client, etc.). But I'm not complaining. Versatility is a good thing! :D Plus I get paid more!
Most of what I code at work is in VB (by nature of the huge beast of code that I've inheritted), which can be thoroughly boring, but I am using C++ for some of my newer projects (like a GPS Nema string decoder that plugs LAT/LONG coord's into a custom map grid).
on the job to stay more adaptable as an EE (almost their) but i get the most use out of it on my own.
I'm just a beginner to programming... Programming is taught in my College and I'm only in my 2nd year of my 4-year Degree course.
Actually I'm still wondering why this site with the name "Cprogramming.com" but there are other programming languages board on this "C Board"....
:confused: Hmm.....
But I'm glad I found a board full of great ppl and helpful ppl!:D
I like to program for fun, at least now. Maybe later I will get a real job in it.
