LOGO

1995–1996

Learnt LOGO in school.

1996–

QBasic

1997

I don't even recollect exactly what I did with QBASIC. I remember writing a lot of simple programs to calculate stuff from my math textbooks and double-checking my math homework using the computer. Unusually I learnt C first and then stumbled on BASIC. Hardware - I'd a second-hand AST Pentium 386 laptop which someone loaned to me. It had Windows 3.1 on it.

Javascript

1998–

Started doing Javascript when I first learned HTML as a kid. Re-discovered JS all over again in 2003-04 thanks to AJAX and the whole web2.0 phenomenon.

VisualBasic

1998–1999

I had a P3 machine at home running Windows 95. I also had a copy of Microsoft Visual Studio and I started doing a lot of GUI apps for fun with VB.

Java

2003–

Learnt Java as a freshman in college.

Python

2004–

My defacto programming language. Also do a lot of Django web development.

C++

2006

Learnt C++ to do a school assignment. Never programmed in C++ after that.

Erlang

2008–

I became increasingly curious about Erlang after Joe Armstrong's new book came out. Concurrent programming has never been this fun! Also this is my first experience with a true functional language (if you ignore the little bit of Common Lisp that I picked up during the Artificial Intelligence class).

Objective-C

2008

Learnt Objective-C in order to write an iPhone app at work.

Perl

2009–2010

Learnt Perl to maintain a bunch of scripts at work.

Clojure

2009–

Dabbled in Clojure -- haven't yet done anything substantial with Clojure yet.

Ruby

2010–

Just started learning Ruby!
