Hi, I used to a little programming in the 1980's as a teenager in the BASIC language, (it really was basic).
I used to have an Amstrad CPC 464, it was top notch back in the day, green screen or colour monitor, 64k RAM, built in audio cassette deck. It was awesome. In the manual you had several programs and games you could type in, magazines full of codes.
I loved the fact that most programs could be broken into. The magazines included pokes, these were little bits of code that could be included into a game that were basically game cheats, but it was a lot more interesting to break into the program yourself and work out how to give yourself extra lives, slow down time, even change graphics, various different things that would give you advantages. I enjoyed gaming an experimenting with code.
Then came consoles. The NES, Sega Megadrive, PS3 1,2,3, and a few others in between. The PC became a bulky tool that sat in the corner. Both seemed to become objects others wrote software for you to exploit, rather than for you to easily play around with. To do programming courses involved money, time, and expensive books. All things I didn't have at that time.
Now days with code blocks, masses of free info on the net, and affordable books coding has become something you can put as little or as much money and time into as you want, whether it be at college or home. For years I've wanted to take up programming again, I just wished I'd known about code blocks years ago!
Sorry about sending the Kaspersky Fix post before this, I though it was important info, and notice this thread until today.
I hope this goes some way to proving to you, and me that I am Human! :D

Greetings from New Zealand, I am a C++ programmer from the days of Borland C++ Builder which was the ultimate Rad tool, until Microsoft pinched its technical expertise and incorporated it in Visual Studio.
Hope to investigate CodeBlocks to see how it shapes up running under Linux Mint 14.
Nice to be on board.
Regards
John
