Same, I learned DOS, BASIC and a bit of asm when I was 9 or 10 (late 80s), from a single book and mucking about. So did a lot of my friends. Kids learn pretty quick. Good memories in the article, interesting how people went through the same stuff around the world |

Lucky. I unfortunately picked up a C++ book from the library as my first coding book around that same age and was intimidated away from programming for a few yrs until high school. I wished I grabbed the BASIC book instead, which would have been far more accessible, but I had read somewhere that video games were made in C++ which led me astray.
