How I Became a Programmer
This is a Nintendo Family Computer that we used to play Super Mario. What was interesting about this game console was that it is also a computer with a keyboard and a ROM cartridge with NS-HUBASIC programming language. It supports Text Modes and Graphic Modes on TV.
I only saw it being used as a computer. But thats when i got interested in programming. That was in 1985.
Some years later...
I wrote my first computer program on this personal computer in 1993 (or 1994). The simple computer was a CASIO FX-730P Personal Computer. With the RAM of only 8K bytes and a clock speed of about 400KHz, this simple computer can be interfaced with a printer or a cassete tape storage device.
The language was built into the firmware in the ROM, it was a version of BASIC.
will update this post soon.
