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?

Kieran... allow me to voice doubt in you programming at an age when most kids have trouble reading. ???
