It was when I was in grade 4, and I found these programming books for kids at our grade school library. Of course, they were old, but I was quite curious. There was actually this book called "Big Blue" which was BASIC programming for IBM and compatibles. I wanted to photocopy that because it was what I had at that time (so as you can see it was very long ago.) I did not have many friends then, and I guess learning computer programming didn't do much help when it comes to that. But, I learned to enjoy doing things by myself, so I wasn't so lonely.
