The discipline, logic, thinking and planning has served me well outside of programming. Whereas once I might have been referred to as an expert, I would now describe myself as a sophisticated user. Having helped transform businesses using code, I began getting more involved in the non-technology side of business and ‘process change’. Then MS-Access, VB and VB.Net arrived, languages started changing as fast as fashion, remember Paradox and Delphi? The confusing variety of versions and incarnations were often incompatible with each other and the only semblance of stability seemed to be in languages like C, PhP, Perl, Javascript. Much later I became a competent programmer using dBASE III and Clipper, and with a Senior Partner at Rawlinson and Hunter, had a hand in writing Fund Management software. In my youth I wrote BASIC language but I really only dabbled by copying out of a book to create programmes like naughts and crosses (called Tick, Tack Toe in US books).
