RE: What Was Your First Programming Language?
Wow, this brings back memories...

1985: BASIC at school on a Commodore CBM 8032 (see attached picture or here http://www.vintage-computer.com/pet8032.shtml)
Then:
1986-1989: COBOL (TSO, JCL), PL/1, Prolog, Rexx
1989-1994: Modula-2, occam, C, VHDL, bash, LaTex
from 1994 onwards: C++, perl, Lisp, VimL
2017: started learning python

BTW, in 1989 I learned typing using the vi editor, later vim. Today, I still use vim every day and I am not programming anymore for a living. My eyes, my fingers and my brain are vim-like hardwired :-)
