I am learning programming right now, and so far I didn't succeed in creating a powerful virus in C or an enterprise GUI in C++, but I did code lolcocks_folder.py
What was your first useful program? (Not helloworld.c or another example from K&R)
A stereo in mIRC script (lol)
A dice roller in perl.
A temperature converter in C--wait, that's in K&R...
A Diceware password generator in bash.
A lexicon in CGI.

I didn't write anything remotely useful yet as far as I can remember.
I wrote a shooting game with Borland C++ in C-Mode.

What was your first (useful) program?
A BASIC program that would ask for the user's name and then proceed to enter a critical loop section which would SPAM NAME$ is a faggot in rainbow coloured text. Good times. Good times.

A BASIC program that would find the factors of 121. For bonus points on a homework assignment. In third grade.
