I've written lots of programs. Mostly in COBOL, some in PL/1. Many of them support CICS and DB/2 applications. But my favorite language is Pascal. Here's a program that I wrote as shareware in Turbo Pascal. It's an encrypting text editor: http://www.asstr.org/~HungryGuy/software.htm

Since I have earned my living as a Computer Programmer for 33 years, I have written a lot of programs. Coral, Pascal, C, C++, Java, Python and various Assemblers are the main languages I have used. Mostly programs that go inside specialized machines - embedded programs.

I've done a few simple VB programs, my favourites were a Build-Your-Own-Hamster "game" and a Quibble style frog racer.

Yes, quite a few. I've used COBOL, BASIC, 6502 machine code, 6800 machine code, PHP, Pascal and C++.

I've done a bit of putzing around in a few simpler languages, but the only one I ever did anything serious with was G-code,the language used by CNC mills and lathes. The nice thing about G-code is that once the program is run, you don't need a computer to appreciate the results. Most programs generate text, numbers, or pictures; G-code generates tangible objects.

A lot of them. Mostly I work in C, C++, Java, Standard ML and Assembly. Written stuff from as simple as hello world, to writing entire OS kernels, compilers, networking stacks, OS Installers and Maintainece code and programs to manipulate robots. Quite a few years of coding.
