I'm trying to know how's the average user here, post your informations. I'll start:
17, Male, programming on Linux in C, C++, python, perl, php, assembly
Boy, this turned into a shit show really quick. I guess that's what happens when you have women programmers that just complain and bleed all over the place.
old, Male, Mint
I continually learn programming as I have an obsessive fascination with it. Im familiar with the syntax of a lot of languages but have never actually programmed anything because I think that programming itself is tedious and mind-numbingly boring. At some point I do want to go to school and learn enough about programming to use it professionally (it might stop being boring if I can get over the hump and use it well). Languages I could probably use if I had to are: C, C++, Java, Javascript, Python, Ruby, Lisp, ML/ocaml/F#, Erlang, Squeak Smalltalk, x86 and mips asm, Ada, Delphi, Forth, D, Scala

Currently I am giving advanced (microcontroller) workshops for 12+ kids to experience that feel when discovering a new world of electronics (hardware) and computers (software).

Did any of them write a C compiler for your microcontrollers?
