I'm forever grateful for having the access to Logo programming in early 90s, as a kid from a 3rd world country, for how it leads to where I am today. My first ever english word that I can spell out is REPEAT. | ||

In the early nineties in elementary school I lived in Belgium, and went to a summer camp where we programmed with Logo in a localized French version. I had played with Logo on Apple IIe's in the US, and thought it made sense that in a French-speaking region[0] they'd have a French version. I relearned what little I already knew, but regrettably, this did not help greatly with my French skills. All I remember from this is that `hazard' was the random built-in. Dunno why that's stuck, but there's probably some more important bit of information that should be in my brain if that weren't. [0] Yeah, yeah, I know French, Flemish, and German are the official languages. I was in a French-speaking part. | ||

Me too. It was one of my first experiences with programming languages back in elementary school in Brazil. | ||
