( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I'm actually a younger monk, so I don't remember toying with PDP-8s or even 11s (since I never did). My school was especially lucky to have Apple Is and IIs. We used LogoWriter (yeah, the four retarded turtles). Later, we used the LegoLego to make tanks (what's with the tanks today?). I thought this was especially neat since the parts came with light sensors and stick sensors (stop the motor when this part gets hit). Later, I moved move up to HyperCard 1.8 (WOW!) which let me make simple animations and short, useless applications. From HyperCard, I switched schools and QBASIC was forced upon me. I picked that up quickly but I realized quickly that it lacked finesse. I made sure to quickly learn C and C++ and ended up in Perl after the CGI revolution. Neat eh?

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
