I started programming when I was 7, assembly when I was around 12-14, proper C when I was 15, C++ when I was around 17-18. 21 right now.

I learned to program in Delphi at 12, C and C++ a year or two after, and assembly I've just picked up as I needed it. I'm almost 16 now.

I started programming since I was 11/12 in Basic, and 13 when I learned Assembly.
Since I was 14 I started - a bit - in OS Development and also with Visual Basic.
I'm 16 now btw.

Started with qbasic and later visual basic 2.0 at the age of 11/12. And some .bat "programming".. :)
At 13/14 I started with html/cgi (perl), and later php. Didn't do much "real" programming until my first programming lessons in school, where i started to make a game in C (age 16/17?). Got intrested in how the asm-snippets i stoal worked, and then somehow i found menuetos (age 17/18). Started on my own os at age 18, late 2003. Now i am 19.

I don't know excatly when i started to do things myself, but for a very long time i mostly took free code and modified it to my needs, didn't care how it worked as long as it did work.
Even my attempt to make a DOS game in C was mostly code ripped from tutorials. My advice: don't do like that, try and understand what you are doing right from the start..

Approaching the thirties? I'm 32 now, which means I learned BASIC and 6502 ASM... um... two decades ago? I won't bore you with when I learned the other odd dozen of languages...

Means I'm an "oldie", huh? 8)
