My first programming task was to ask a user to insert a number and then draw a pyramid using asterisks based on those numbers. Fun times :biggrin:

Yeah, I love foreign languages and I've always wanted to have a go at the artificial ones that can give you a lot of money if you're fluent :biggrin:

= programming

Thinking of a computing course at uni but I'm not exactly in love with Math...

The artificial ones don't speak though and they don't involve emotions :wink:

That's why I've already learnt two "real" ones and I'm planning to make myself into a polyglot before I die... But you have to make a living, too... :wink:

Er, I think you can be a translator, language educator, researcher, etc.

Yeah, but it seems to me that too many people do this for me to find some room on the market. And still, it'd seem to me to be a waste of time to spend three times in uni just to learn a language, I'd rather have a degree in something else...
And what are you doing with your life? :wink:
