I'm kinda curious to see what "level" everyone's at if any. No experience? Beginner? Intermediate? Advanced? edit: the poll didn't go through... lol
i had some experience with C and C++ .when i studied Mechanical engineering , C++ was a paper .. was a tough paper
I don't suppose my 'game' of a worm chasing around a maze to find a mushroom on an BBC machine in 1982 counts as programming experience . Some BASIC and what we referred to as machine code at school with Pascal (now Delphi?) and very limited COBOL in my early working days. I was basically rubbish at those anyway (other than the worm, it was brilliant!) So long story short - nothing of any merit or worth nowadays - complete noob on anything that remotely resembles a modern approach to the job. Cheers
I began with Visual Basic .NET in 2007, then switched primarily to C# in early 2010 and I've also written a bit of C++. I've been self-studying the whole time (programming is my main hobby), since programming is mainly taught in universities which I'm too young for. I consider myself intermediate.
I answered Advanced as I have been programing for 30 years and have held the title of Sr. Programmer at a Fortune 500 corporation. However that has been a few years and I mostly do IT work now.
NONE!! I did learn the most basic things in C++ and Visual Basic during school but guess what i forgot all of it And i used to su*k at it HAHAHA
No experience: I began to learn some years ago, but I found it boring; too much time before can do something interesting.
When i was in university i dabbled in machine code, matlab, delphi, c and did some web programming with php and perl.
I answered Advanced. I started programming 45 years ago when I was 15 and have been working professionally in IT since 1970. Programming languages I have used include: ALGOL 60, EMA, FORTRAN, COBOL, ICL PLAN, IBM BAL, Pascal, Modula-2, C, Smalltalk, Visual Basic, Oracle PL/SQL.
Lets just say I am self taught, I won't go into details about how I learned but I learned some of it reading books, but mostly from forums over the Internet
Intermediate here. I don't program as much as I use the knowledge to reverse engineer. Assembly is where most of my knowledge is. But I have used: Java Basic Python C++/C#/Obj-C VBasic VC++/C# DarkBasic The codes normally messy but it works for my needs =)
