I started programming when I was about 14 years old and received an old 486 laptop with MSDOS 5.1 into in and broken diskette reader which wasn't standard so I never could put or take nothing from it neither change it with another one since it was not built for ages.

So as I wanted to give some use to that computer and that version of MSDOS came with QBasic pre-installed I started making some codding on that, at first some silly calculator and then a mastermind-like game which was my first "serious" program and my first ever game.

Later when I got into high school and get my TI-83 which was my sister's I quickly learn't programming TI-BASIC and made my unique versions of quadratic root solvers and tic tac toe games. They were never released online because I didn't had the proper cable, but it had some sucess all over the class. It did not proliferated over the school because most of it had casios....
