I cut my teeth on C64 BASIC. I got one (a C64) for christmas 1984, the manual had several pages of sample programs that you could program (one ever had a mistake in it). By New Years day I had tried atleast 4 of them.
I'll be honest, I had more fun making making ASCII art that would endlessly scroll & loop thanks to a "GOTO 10" at the end of my creation.
If I'm even more honest, I find myself wishing for a GOTO command I could use in my bash scripts once in a blue moon. (I know they are a bad/horrible/lame crutch, but my brain seems to blank out any other options and just says to me: a GOTO would work perfect here.)
If it wasn't for a C64 and BASIC, I wouldn't have the career and love of technology that I still do [Checks calendar, HOLY FUCK] 36 years later.
