Wow. Glad it worked out. There were at least some good high school CS teachers in the 90s. Ours knew that a lot of kids joined the class who were burned out on school, and insisted on going beyond the curriculum to the point where those guys would have a chance at a coding job right out of school - if they put in the work. We also had to implement binary arithmetic from scratch (booleans) although I think that was in the curriculum.
