Line 24:
* I have used Excel since Office 97, but I really started with VBA in 2014, almost exclusively within Excel.
* Among the other languages I have used to some extent, the most notable are MATLAB and Scilab (my main languages in University for numerical analysis courses), and x86 assembly, for which I still have a reading knowledge (to check compiler output). My first programming language on a computer was QBasic, in 1996, followed shortly by Turbo C++ and Delphi.
* Other language I have used quite a bit: Octave, Turbo Pascal / Free Pascal, Basic (several flavors : QB, VB, Real Basic, Power Basic, True Basic), Ada, C++ (only tu enhance some C code with C++ data structures), Common Lisp, Scheme, Forth (several variants including HP48 RPN and WinForth, and one that I coded in Java for a CS project), GAP, Maxima, Maple, Mathematica, Ruby, and the macro language of Lotus 1-2-3. And just a sip of Julia, MuPad, Awk, Tcl, Perl, JavaScript, VB.NET, C#, F#, JCL (the bare minimum to run some Fortran and SAS tasks on an IBM mainframe), J (yuck!).
* Languages I ''really'' don't like: C++ (TMP is insane), APL and J (unreadable).
* Languages I wish I could use a bit, or more: JavaScript (useful in my domain for data visualization), Julia (looks promising), Gauss (for econometrics), Troll (used for economic models), COBOL & PL/I (mainly to make my own opinion as they have been much decried).
