Same. For me, it was physics and the teacher was interested in how I did it, so I brought in my laptop and showed him the Visual Basic IDE and explained how it worked. He wasn't questioning that I had done it as much as he was intrigued that I had made such a thing. I wasn't allowed to use it on tests (laptops weren't allowed in class back then) but I didn't mind that much since I knew the formulas forward and backward by then. I also typed all my papers and assignments because my handwriting was atrocious. Only a few teachers took issue with this, and as an adult, I can't say I've had to do any cursive or write out an essay on paper for any reason.
