The first time I used C++

I was 10 and figured out how to use it almost immediately from the documentation. I was using it from the command line on windows with the Mingw32 GCC. I was amazed at how easy it was!? I had been working with html and CSS since I was 5… I was curious when my dad took me to a lecture he gave at a local college with a lot of young adults (particularly young females in tech). He asked after he gave them 3 separate poems and instructions on how to decorate the pages if they would rather learn to code (40% of the lecture… maybe more…seemed excited). He spent most of the lecture explaining all the programs and how to use them, giving them the link, and encouraging them to use it. I was so happy when I was able to communicate with my dad about coding. He NEVER taught me how to code. He just made me learn and never helped me. It took him over a year to learn that I actually was coding. I was 9 when I started. I was in his room one time and he saw the coding window on the computer. We spend hours talking about the projects I was working on. He didn’t know I had grasped the skills so well. Pure talent. I have a stupid amount of talent and have never been impressed by any programmers.
