Do you think if you had not started with a 16-bit computer, your learning would have progressed differently? I know this is a highly speculative question.

- bsenftner 8y agoThe Apple II and Vic-20 were both 8-bit computers. The minis and mainframes at universities were 16 and 32-bit systems, but for the large part I just ignored the word-length of a system. I really only cared if I needed to work in assembler, which I preferred for a good 15 years. I generally work in C flavored C++, and don't really optimize via process bit knowledge until bottlenecks are being removed.
