BASIC
1987–
My first language, on a ZX-81!
LOGO
1988–
Learned it at school, and on a friend's Amstrad PCW 8256.
QBasic
1989–1992
On friends' computers.
Turbo Pascal
1990–1993
Aah, high school programming… TSR programs to stay dormant, then bounce characters around the screen…
C
1994–1998
Never much since college.
LISP
1995–
Learned it in my first Summer session in college. Loved it ever since.
Java
1997–2007
Aah, the bad old days…
C++
1998
One or two classes in college. I would not trust myself to use it for real without reading two or three specific books.
Javascript
1999–
Who doesn't use javascript?
XSLT
2001–2007
(on and off) Ugh.
Ruby
2002–
The Pragmatic Programmer pushed me towards Ruby, before Rails existed. I use it now only for things like Chef/Puppet, with no clear Python alternative. And I still miss _why.
Perl
2003
Just for one project. Loved the community, though.
Python
2007–
This is the language I use at work every day.
Haskell
Tried to learn it once or twice. May try again.
Smalltalk
“This one time in college…”
AppleSoft BASIC
Aah. The Apple II. Or in my case, the CV-777 knockoff!
bash
Scheme
Dabble from time to time.
x86 Assembly
Assembly
6502 Assembly
A little.
