Actually Alaric, when I'm not having fantasies about writing my own Android
Apps, I mostly want to just get back to writing different types of basic
programs and be able to introduce my younger relatives (nieces, nephews, my
own child when he grows up a bit) to the joys of programming. When I was
young (in the times of MS Dos 6.22) the computer was not an opaque thing
that did stuff that I couldn't understand how it did. I want to get back to
that level of comfort with 'looking under the hood'. I have 3 computers at
my disposal, one Windows, one Mac, and one Linux (Ubuntu).


You can do what I did. Pick a language you are most comfortable with, and

Udupa, people have suggested Python as a flexible language that will help
me do a variety of things. Can I get started on these problems using
Python? Which language have you been using?

Thank you everyone for entertaining my silly whims. :-)
