The author( SCHOLEY ) is a trained computer user of 24 years and first started
programming on an RMNimbus computer (research machines). age10.
Had a Sinclair ZX Spectrum 48k for a while ,on which the author( SCHOLEY ) sometimes typed programs
in ,in machine code and wrote programs as well.
During this time the author( SCHOLEY ) also used his friends computers: Dragon 32, BBC16,BBCMaster,Amiga.. the author's ( SCHOLEY )school (Frodsham High School) had an Ethernet network which got used a lot, special thanks to the chemistry dept for use of the bbc, and the art dept for use of the BBC Acorn Archimedes. A perfect computer if ever there was one. At imperial (where the author( SCHOLEY ) went to university) many varied beasts such as Sun Spark terminals(these were amazing and never got to go on these ) Archimedes, and BBC computers.
However the BBC Computers were just interfaces on a massive mono-cubic cube of VAX mainframe which ran Unix and actually had to program in FORTRAN 77 . Having totally missed the dot com revolution, at the time computers were either expensive/ slow/ both, the access to the web limited/ expensive/ slow/both,the author( SCHOLEY ) first got trained in html in the year 2000. Although the author( SCHOLEY ) can write code by hand, it is time consuming and an editor instead is prefered. After everything is done with an editor then use text based programs to debug. Currently trying to learn more about mobile webs ,but have a shrewd suspicion they will be virtually irrelevant soon as more people get true internet access on their mobiles and therefore worth waiting for technology to improve. Although also the ability to have just plane text for a web might do the trick for some applications but mobiles are a law unto themselves.
Also the author ( SCHOLEY )has studied JAVA (not JavaScript which is slightly boring as you can't plot points properly) . Java is great cause you can access powerful gui api functions which speed up graphics and print 3d images to the screen , move them around etc. However last time the author( SCHOLEY ) got interested the technology was still new( its sort of catching up)and you had to download into windows the correct file and set it all up and that sort of thing literally is a terrible state for a language to be in ,and is so annoying that it don't come as standard with explorer or windows. The 3d effect of vista looks interesting but lazy to go buy , install it, etc on the computer, which although has memory is slow and anyway early version software preferably because they don't crash so much , normal java is ok. Waiting for widespread availability . SOON COMING a java program. example. currently I have made ken and chelsea site mobile compatible using php
