QBASIC

C++ when I was 12, but only "hello world" level of knowledge
I also thought that C++ was better than C b/c of ++
XML

Java 18
NXTG
9 or so, idfk
Java

I know the l in xml says language but it isnt any more of a programming lang than json
None

Does learning HTML CSS and JS at 23 count?
alright then fgt
JavaScript, 25
Basic

Pascal ABC

Damn, what made you start at that young of an age?
Python

if anyone is wondering, I started taking programming lessons and, heh, I'm still in the game years later. If anyone cares I can make greentext story
C++

qbasic
8 (in 1992)
Java
22 (now)
Java
29
GML (Game Maker Language) when I was 11 or 12. Meme all you want but it unironically got me into computers and made my first year of college a breeze.
C 15
batch 13
Go back to gmod, OP.
HTML

If that doesn't count, I also learned VBA at 15
Brainfuck

But only started really programming at 20 with matlab
And now we're rewriting our fucking MATLAB code in C and C++
javascript
13
still suck ass with programming
>implying it's not
qbasic at 8, then c++ at 12. c++ is unironically the goat language.
I don't understand? Is brainfuck supposed to be hard for a 5 year old to learn? I can understand it being difficult for a mentally impaired child or someone with a IQ less than 127 but even they can learn it, albeit in a longer time period than a normal child. I started learning it at age 4 and became fully proficient at age 5, it isn't that hard of a language to learn.

C++
11 or 12
C++

I did some stuff when I was 13 in C but I wouldn't consider it really learning to program.
CBOT

VB3.0
~11 ? i dont remember
Pascal, 17
Python
9
C

C++
Now (19)
Is starting late like around 18 or 19 too late? People can do better than me thanks to brain plasticity if they started younger. I'm also tech illiterate
Bash (not sh)
10
If scripting does not count, C 11yo
It's not too late but it does require a lot of energy and devotion
You need to put yourself into a position where you're coding all the time, even depriving yourself of sleep if necessary. Do this for a few years and see where it takes you.
>C
>17
I want to die. Please kill me. After learning Python, I never wanted to go back.
>Until I learned you can do a lot of nifty nifty shit in C++ and the C background helped.
>HTML and CSS
no
>Javascript
yes
Javascript is fully function as a programming language. Now, if he was an HTML markup baybay, then no, but javascript meets the requirements.
BASIC, I guess when the C64 first came out - 1982?
Still my most beloved machine (but not for BASIC).
>C++ better than C
Only if you are a package-abusing pajeet.
>C better than C++
Only if you're a professional fizzbuzz programmer.
>batch scripting and VBS at 14
>C & C++ hybrid for arduino at 17
>after that i learned actual C++ at around 18

Really? I learned ActionScript after playing flash games on Newgrounds.

enlightened at an old age i hope you find peace and happiness
>GML
I currently have a friend learning GML and has asked me for help since I've been programming as a hobby for a while. I don't normally meme and say languages suck but GML is the first time I've ever felt like a language was missing basic components. I've been desperately trying to tell my friend to learn a better language and that most languages aren't so frustrating to program in.
No not really, Gmod actually
BASIC 15
VB6 15
Java 16
C at 19
C++ at 20
MatLab/Octave at 21
Fortran at 21
Python at 21
22 now

I feel really bad for wasting so much time not learning programming
Scheme

For sure, if you are not an expert by the age of 16 don't bother you missed your window of opportunity.
Go
In utero
Basic
15
is it bad that i don't remember?
Or any low-level programmer where speed is important....
C++, 14
Are you me?
This is what google wants. This is the world they desire.
c++ 14
c/javascript 15
python 16
JustBASIC (freeware version of Liberty BASIC) @ age 10.
Blitz3D @ 12
Scripting/visual-basic @ 13
visual C++ @ 16
Web programming (CSS, HTML4, JavaScript, Python, etc...) @ 18
C/Perl @ 20
I'm 22 now without a future and all I do now is work, eat, play with code off github, fuck, sleep, repeat.
Life is pain.
GML
12
JavaScript @ 15
Visual basic at 13
then a year after started with C#
Visual studio was very comfy
Lego Mindstorms Blocks (if that counts) @ 15
After that Java @ 17
Pascal
13
The introductory CS course at Stanford has well over 1,000 people per year. Everyone from freshman to Masters/PhD's take it.
You're fine.
Python at 20 or 21. I started making websites when I was around 12 though. If I could go back in time I would give myself a book on PHP and MySQL. JS wasn't really that important at the time.
Nooooo
At college:
Java/C 18
C++ 19
Python 20
FORTRAN

php
