I always thought Basic was the first computer language, but I guess I learned something new today. I'm a geek, so this is cool to me. I know there are lots of other geeks here, though, so I wanted to share this find.
It's an article called "How Difficult Is It To Write A Compiler?" The title should have been "Not Very" because the guy wrote one in a few days, then explains how, what it does, and all that.
I always thought I was a pretty darn good programmer, but this has me confused.
Fortran (the 77 ANSI version) was the first programming language I ever learned. Maybe learned is to strong a word. The first language that someone attempted to teach me might be more apt. I wasn't paying attention much back then.
John it goes back to 11 years before I was born.

Yeah that is new to me. We haven't focused on tha languages in detail really and I doubt we will. We're going to learn Visual Basic.NET mostly during the module
I am actually taking a class to learn the newest language in that chart Scheme
Scheme is derived from LISP, a really old language. I hope you like recursion, because there are no explicit loops in scheme (or at least there wasn't when I learned it).
