"My First Program" is a true story.
When I was ten, I wrote my first computer program:
10 PRINT "KARL"
20 GOTO 10
RUN
Using only my mind (and its servants, my fingers), I had caused a machine to *endlessly replicate my name*.
Well, not endlessly: the instructor taught me about the BREAK key.
In the News
Running my first program at age ten filled my with a holy joy unmatched since William Blake saw God.
