1. html, css, vbscript, javascript, c, php, transact-sql, classic asp, ti-83 calculator lang

4. HS, college, post college (for work)

5. html as a kid cus it was easy and a way to express myself online. C because it was a part of the curriculum. vbscript because it makes automating administrative tasks easy and because a program at work implements vbscript. Transact-sql because a program at work runs off a sql db. Classic asp to run reports on data inside a db. PHP to manipulate data in a db. TI-83 cus i downloaded some progs for the calc and wanted to hack them

6. vbscript for work and implemented in classic asp.

7. work. im currently not in school

8. vbscript in classic asp for interaction with dbs

9. C cus that gave me the best info on how to write code. But i was taught by a teacher at college

Default

1. C, C++, C#, Java, BASIC, Delphi, assembly, scheme, prolog, php, perl, javaScript, HTML

2. None

3. Java is the first language i learned properly, although i had played around with many others before but wouldn't have considered myself proficient in them

4. university

5. It was what was taught

6. C

7. work & university

8. C# was fun to use - it took the good bits of java and the good bits of C and put them together.

9. Would really depend, one of the big ones though, perhaps C/C++ or maybe Java - it would have to be platform independant though
