Programming

I've also done a fair amount of embedded work. Putting linux on small systems is quite a challenge. Getting SNMP in there is a big challenge.

1. Basic, GW and TI99
2. Fortran 77
3. Visual Basic 1.0 thru 6.0
4. Java
5. Python
6. Perl
7. C/C++
8. CLisp
9. S-Lang I found S-Lang a few years ago working on a Army contract. At the time the project was a large monolithic VB app. So to learn C/C++ I began to fiddle with making the core functions of the VB program into dlls and straight C libs. I tacked on an interface lib to S-Lang so I could script the testing. This worked out really well.
