How did you learn to code?

How did you learn programming?

[ ] Taught yourself (ie. just experimenting on your own with computers and discovered coding)
[ ] Educated at school
[ ] Tutorials from a book or online
[ ] OTHER (specify)

The first one is for me.  I discovered QBasic when I was like 12.  Good times man.  My first programs were terrifyingly crappy but I loved coding instantly.  I think that teaching myself QBasic just by experimenting and looking at the syntax in the little Help guide built into the IDE was probably the most fun I've had with a computer (is that sad or not?).

I was left in a barren desert with nothing but a computer and a first edition SICP.  I was near death when I on the eighth day managed to conjure my first cudder... it was the most delicious meal I had ever had, it still brings tears to my eyes...
