How did you get started in programming?

We all know they love us computer nerds. I'm glad I had a girlfriend BEFORE I started programming. Otherwise I'd never get one.

There is no Cb.

C# is a half-step up from C...

Details details!

I'd be wary of chicks who dig assembly programmers.

so thats how you do it....

First of all I leared QBasic...
Then I learned Visual Basic which was much better!

And when I went the university I started learning C++ ( I'm majoring in CS ).

I started with webdesign (html, javascript)

and jumped to c/c++
.....perl
......php
.....java

.........

fixed.

Isn't C# just a object oriented language based off C and is ment to be cross platform like Java or something?

NO!

C + OOP= Objective C (used very often for MAC development)

C# was the first programming language, which was developed for NGWS(Next Generation Windows Services), which uses the NGWS Runtime.

The main parts of C# were copied from C/C++, but there are also VisualBasic features (for each loops......)

The syntax is almost "Java-like"

And C# was only developed for Micrsoft, so there is and won't be any platform portability (e.g. windows to linux)

Cb == B# == C

Therefore we could call the C programming language C flat or B sharp

**ZakkWylde969** · 07-14-2003

B sharp. Because the ++ means add one. So it would be B +1 i.e B sharp.

I'd never programmed before in my life, but when I went to college I thought a CS major sounded like fun and I figured I could switch majors if I didn't like it. But now I'm addicted...

Somehow I've managed to attract a guy that's not even a computer geek... I'm still trying to figure out how I did it though!

post a picture and we should be able to tell you how you did it

by the way, I got into programming when I got a commodore 64 for christmas way back when. I was 8 and I tried desperately to understand the BASIC handbook that came with it. not easy for an 8 year old but I kept trying till I got older. Now, I may be more confused than I was then!

No, no, no, there's tons of girls much more attractive than I ... I just finally found a nice guy who appreciates me for who I am, rather than being scared of my geekness! (Sheesh, I should think before I post...)
