      And you sir, are a noob

      I wrote a great tamagotchi program in Qbasic once, using the timer function. I can't believe you didn't even include Perl, but included some of the new fancier languages, outrageous I tells ya!

        Ahh tell the truth, I got hours of enjoyment from Nibbles... that was Qbasic was it not?

        I did genuinely think of BASIC and ALGOL etc when making the poll but thought it was probably past bedtime for all the granddads on the board.

        Teehee

          And I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for those meddling kids!

          Qbasic Nibbles was a classic game, later to be borrowed by Nokia as a phone game (it was also on the RM Nimbus if I recall correctly, where you ate numbers so that they could palm it off as a maths game), I even remember downloading MortalKombat.bas during Qbasic's demise, outrageous!

                  Oh dear. Someone needs to learn what bytecode is and that .NET uses it as well as another popular programming language...

                    You write in bytecode? Wimp. We real coders do it by rubbing our rubber sole shoes on the carpet to build up a charge, and pushing the electrons around the RAM chip with our fingers.

                      I once programmed my mother in laws central heating system to come on at 5.30pm.

                      Does that count?
